Decides what a company open-sources and what stays proprietary, names the strategic motive for each side of the line, says who owns the decision, and states what the company commits never to close. Use whenever someone asks "should we open source this?", "what should we open source", "where do we draw the open-core line", "which features stay paid", "who signs off on open sourcing this", or wants a company-level open source strategy rather than a plan for one project - even if they frame it as a licensing question. Produces an asset-by-asset open/closed verdict, a value-capture and irreversibility check, a public non-reversal commitment and a re-evaluation trigger. Not license selection - use samber/developer-relations-skills@oss-license-strategy.
Chooses the business model for a developer tool - proprietary SaaS, open core, hosted open source, support and LTS subscription, dual licensing, source-available, consumption metering, marketplace take-rate, OEM licensing - and the go-to-market each one forces. Use whenever a founder or exec asks how a developer tool should make money, whether open core or a managed cloud fits better, where the line between free and paid belongs, whether to open-source the product at all, or why adoption is high and revenue flat, and on any monetization, revenue model or commercial open source question - even if they never say "business model". Not price points, packaging or free-tier limits - use samber/developer-relations-skills@devtools-pricing-strategy.
