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.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

# 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

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add product-on-purpose/pm-skills/deliver-launch-checklist@sha256:12e1baee7add28b6

The line at the top of this page pins the label v2.2.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
