What problem does it solve?
Launch windows are high risk and post-gold issues can cause chaos if not scoped and gated correctly. This Skill prevents scope creep, ensures fixes are safe and fast, enforces a rollback plan, and provides a lightweight QA gate so teams can ship a focused day-one patch with minimized risk.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Rapid Triage: Classifies open bugs (P1/P2, severity S1-S4) and filters for fixes that are safe and estimated under four hours.
- Coordinated Implementation: Spawns focused implementation and verification tasks with lead-programmer and qa-tester agents and handles config-only fixes directly.
- Rollback and QA Gate: Requires a release-manager rollback plan before changes, runs a targeted smoke check or broader regression as needed, and produces a formal patch record in production/releases.
- Use Case: When cert feedback or a late playtest surfaces urgent fixes after gold master, use this Skill to produce a publishable day-one patch that includes rollback procedures and QA sign-off.
Quick Start
Prepare a day-one patch plan that prioritizes safe P1 and P2 fixes from production/qa/bugs, produce a rollback plan, and write the patch record to production/releases/day-one-patch-[version].md.
