deliver-launch-checklist
Creates a cross-functional pre-launch checklist covering engineering, design, marketing, support, legal, and operations readiness, with owners, dates, and go/no-go criteria so nothing is missed before release. Use for significant or cross-team launches, not a small single-team change. For the customer-facing announcement of what shipped, use deliver-release-notes instead.
npx skills add product-on-purpose/pm-skills --skill deliver-launch-checklist --agent claude-code
Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
<!-- PM-Skills | https://github.com/product-on-purpose/pm-skills | Apache 2.0 --> # Launch Checklist A launch checklist is a comprehensive verification document that ensures all functions are ready before releasing a feature or product. It coordinates across engineering, QA, design, marketing, support, legal, and operations to prevent launch-day surprises. Good launch checklists surface blockers early and create shared accountability for launch readiness. ## When to Use - 1-2 weeks before any significant launch - During launch planning kickoff meetings - When coordinating cross-functional releases - Before major version releases or feature rollouts - After incidents to improve launch processes ## When NOT to Use - You are validating whether to ship at all via an experiment -> use `measure-experiment-design` - You need the customer-facing announcement of what shipped -> use `deliver-release-notes` - The launch already happened and you want results or reflection -> use `measure-experiment-results` or `iterate-retrospective` - The change is small and single-team with no cross-functional surface: a launch checklist adds ceremony without value; track it in the sprint instead ## Instruct

What does the deliver-launch-checklist skill do?
Creates a cross-functional pre-launch checklist covering engineering, design, marketing, support, legal, and operations readiness, with owners, dates, and go/no-go criteria so nothing is missed before release.

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add product-on-purpose/pm-skills --skill deliver-launch-checklist --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From product-on-purpose/pm-skills, a repository with 518 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
