Product? Useful for me. Distribution? No clue

A developer built a Slack-to-code-fix app that automatically identifies the correct repository, branch, and worktree from a pasted message, then generates a fix or handoff prompt. The creator, seeking to learn business skills through real-world execution, is stuck at the validation stage, unsure how to determine if the tool has value beyond their own use.

I built a slack message to code-fix app, so that you just paste the slack message and it figures out what repo is it about down to which specific branch, worktree , providing a fix or hand off prompt at the end. My goal is to learn about business by actually doing it and got a hard stop, impostor syndrome, at this step of having it almost ready and looking in the wild without knowing how to find if this is really valuable to someone else than me. I know this is nothing new, but I'd love some human wisdom What would you do to get unstuck at this point and validate your idea? Or what do you normally do at this point?
