Open Standards Strategy

by samber98ed86da8babMIT2 starsListed Oct 8, 2026Updated Oct 8, 2026Repository updated 10 days ago

Decides how a company engages a named open standard or protocol - ignore it, consume it, certify conformance, extend it, contribute upstream, co-found a spec with peers, or drive its own as a de facto standard - plus the venue (Git-based spec, foundation, consortium, IETF/W3C/OASIS, ISO transposition), the patent-licensing mode, the conformance plan and the kill rule. Use whenever someone raises open standards participation, protocol strategy, standards body engagement, standards wars, joining versus competing with an emerging protocol, donating a specification to a neutral foundation, whether to standardize an interface at all, or a competitor's rival spec - even if they never say "standard". Not project governance - use samber/developer-relations-skills@oss-governance.

Ask your agent to install it

Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent that can run commands — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this skill's install guide, shows you its source, license and scripts, and installs it with the SourceWeft CLI once you agree.

Read https://sourceweft.com/skills/gh-samber-developer-relations-skills-open-standards-strategy/install.md and install the skill it describes. Before installing, show me its source, license and whether it ships scripts, and wait for my OK. Ask me before changing anything else on my machine.

Read the install guide the agent follows

Install it yourself from a terminal

For Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and other local agents. The SourceWeft CLI fetches the skill from its source repository at the commit scanned here, and verifies every file against the hashes recorded when the skill was scanned. If anything differs, nothing is written.

npx @sourceweft/cli skills install gh-samber-developer-relations-skills-open-standards-strategy

Add --agent claude-code, codex, cursor or universal to choose which agent gets it (Claude Code by default).

Upstream installer — not verified by SourceWeft

The open-source skills installer fetches the same pinned commit, but does not check the files against the hashes SourceWeft recorded.
