Build a phase-gated EOL checklist sized to the sunset, with a named owner on every item. Use when the decision to retire is made and you need the operational plan.
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.

# EOL Checklist ## Purpose Turn a sunset decision into a phase-gated operational plan: what must happen, in which lifecycle phase, and who owns it. The output is a working checklist — sticky-note-sized items, each with a verb and a named function — not a strategy document. The checklist is **sized to the sunset**. A deprecated internal tool gets a dozen items across three phases. A regulated hardware line gets a cross-functional playbook across six phases with gate criteria between them. Both are correct; using the wrong one is the failure. ## Input **Works best with:** The product being sunset and any dates you're already committed to. **Also useful:** Customer and revenue scale, whether a replacement exists and how ready it is, contract or regulatory obligations, and whether hardware, inventory, or channel partners are in play. Anything supplied with the invocation itself — text after the skill name, a pasted context dump, or an appended `ARGUMENTS:` line — counts as answers already given. Use it and skip whatever it covers; don't re-ask. **Arriving empty-handed? That works too.** The skill asks up to three questions — what's being …

How to install
mdr add deanpeters/product-manager-skills/eol-checklist@sha256:bbbadd3d00456f91The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260810.d025768, 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.
