What problem does it solve? Deploying to production without a structured process leads to broken releases, undetected errors, and no way to recover quickly. This Skill provides a disciplined launch workflow covering readiness checks, feature flags, staged rollouts, monitoring, and rollback planning so every deployment is reversible and observable. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Pre-Launch Checklist: Covers code quality, security, performance, accessibility, infrastructure, and documentation gates before any deploy. - Feature Flags and Staged Rollouts: Decouples deployment from release with a flag lifecycle and a canary sequence (5% → 25% → 50% → 100%) with explicit advance/hold/rollback thresholds for error rate, latency, and business metrics. - Monitoring and Rollback Strategy: Defines what to monitor post-launch, error budget release gates, and a documented rollback plan with trigger conditions and time-to-rollback targets. - Use Case: Before releasing a new task-sharing feature, run the pre-launch checklist, ship the code behind a feature flag, canary it to 5% of users while watching error rates, and keep a rollback plan ready in case thresholds turn red. ## Quick Start Use the shipping-and-launch skill to prepare a pre-launch checklist and staged rollout plan for my upcoming production deployment.
