growth-experimentation
Help users build and scale a high-velocity growth experimentation engine that prioritizes impact and fosters a culture of rapid learning.
npx skills add RefoundAI/lenny-skills --skill growth-experimentation --agent claude-code
Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Growth Experimentation Velocity Build a high-output engine to compound small wins into massive growth. Help the user with growth experimentation velocity using insights from 10 guests and posts across Lenny's Podcast and Newsletter. ## How to Help 1. **Establish the Baseline** - Analyze current conversion funnels and identify the single North Star metric to focus on. 2. **Prioritize and Plan** - Use frameworks like ICE or RICE to rank experiments by impact and engineering cost. 3. **Execute and Iterate** - Launch scrappy tests quickly to find signals of life before scaling into robust features. 4. **Scale and Socialize** - Systematize the sharing of wins and failures across the organization to multiply the impact of every insight. ## Core Principles ### Search for signs of life Timothy Davis: "You can always do a very, very small test. You can just put a little money into a platform, see if there's a sign of life. If there is, then you can pull back and say, 'Okay, we have signs of life. Now let's build a campaign around that.'" Validate new channels or ideas using low-budget tests and narrow match thresholds before committing significant resources. ### Embrace the counterfactual

What does the growth-experimentation skill do?
Help users build and scale a high-velocity growth experimentation engine that prioritizes impact and fosters a culture of rapid learning.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add RefoundAI/lenny-skills --skill growth-experimentation --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From RefoundAI/lenny-skills, a repository with 1,215 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
