SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Launching a feature involves dozens of cross-functional tasks across engineering, legal, support, and marketing, and missing any one of them can derail the launch. This Skill generates a complete, prioritized launch checklist so nothing falls through the cracks. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Prioritized Checklist Generation: Produces a phased checklist (T-4 weeks through T+4 weeks) with P0/P1/P2 priorities, named owners, and due dates for every item. - Dependency & Critical Path Analysis: Maps blocking relationships between tasks and identifies the longest dependency chain, flagging when the critical path exceeds the time available before launch. - Launch-Type Customization: Adapts the checklist for small features, major launches, or regulatory products, and can integrate with Linear/Jira and calendar tools to create tasks and milestones. - Use Case: A PM preparing a checkout redesign launch for March 15 gets a full checklist with rollback criteria, kill metrics, stakeholder coverage, and a critical path warning if the timeline is at risk. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to create a launch checklist for your feature by providing the feature name or PRD link and the target launch date.

FAQPage Schema
How do I create a product launch checklist?

Provide the feature name or PRD link and target launch date, then specify the launch type: small feature, major launch, or regulatory product. The skill generates a phased checklist with owners, priorities, dependencies, and a critical path analysis saved to a Markdown file.

What should a product launch checklist include?

A launch checklist should cover engineering readiness, legal and privacy review, QA testing, support enablement, sales and marketing assets, rollout and rollback plans, and post-launch monitoring. Each item needs a priority, an owner, and a due date tied to the launch timeline.

How do I identify the critical path for a product launch?

List all P0 items with their dependencies, trace the longest chain from first prerequisite to launch day, and sum the durations. If the critical path exceeds the available time before launch, the launch date is at risk and should be flagged immediately.

Can a launch checklist integrate with Linear or Jira?

Yes, when Linear or Jira MCP tools are available, the checklist items can be converted into tracked tasks with assigned owners and due dates derived from the launch date. Calendar integration can also schedule key milestones like T-4 weeks and launch day.

What is the difference between a small feature and major launch checklist?

Small features use a streamlined 20-30 item checklist over two weeks with simplified compliance and communications. Major launches expand to 50-70 items over four weeks, adding press, investor communication, partner enablement, and broader marketing activities.
