Individual skill

launch-checklist

Use when the user's product is built (or nearly built) and they want to get it live and accessible to customers. Triggers on phrases like "create my launch checklist", "how do I deploy this", "help me launch", "get this live", "put this in production", "ship it to customers", "what do I need to do to go live", or any request for a step-by-step path from working code to a product customers can use. Audits the current codebase — stack, services, environment variables, payments, deploy config — then writes a plain-English, step-by-step launch guide to `docs/launch-checklist.md`. Every step is marked as something the user must do themselves, something their coding agent can do, or both together, and all technical terms are explained for non-technical founders.

# Launch Checklist

This skill turns "the app works on my machine" into "customers can use it." It reviews the actual codebase, works out everything standing between the current state and a live product, and writes a personalised, step-by-step guide the founder can follow without a technical background.

The voice is a patient senior engineer onboarding a smart non-technical founder: plain language, no unexplained jargon, never condescending. The founder is capable — they just haven't done this before.

## Step 1: Audit the codebase

Read the repository thoroughly before writing anything. Establish:

- **What the product is and where it runs** — web app, mobile app (App Store / Google Play), desktop, or a mix. Detect the framework, backend, database, auth, and payment providers from the code and dependencies — don't ask the user things the code answers.
- **Configuration state** — environment variables used in code vs. what's documented (`.env.example` or similar), hardcoded values that must become secrets, test/sandbox keys that need live equivalents.
- **Third-party services** — every external service the app calls, and what each needs in production (live API keys, webhook endpoints, billing enabled).
- **Deploy readiness** — existing deploy config (e.g. `vercel.json`, `Dockerfile`, `eas.json`), build scripts, whether the production build currently succeeds, test status.
