中文Install in ChatGPT
Use an eligible ChatGPT workspace with permission to create skills and, for uploads, upload permission. The installation path for this text-only adaptation was checked against OpenAI documentation. Workspace runtime verification is pending.
- Download skills/launch-checklist/SKILL.md from the pinned GitHub source. Keep the name, description, and instructions for launch-checklist together as a standalone text skill.
- In a ChatGPT workspace with skills and uploads enabled, open Plugins, Skills, Create, and Upload from your computer. Choose a skill package format accepted by the file picker. You can also choose Create with editor and enter the original name, description, and instructions.
- After the scan completes, check that launch-checklist appears in Installed. Type @ in a new chat, select the skill, and use the fictional example on this page to check the output.
Example task
A fictional team plans to enable bookmark sync for 10% of users on Wednesday. Zhou owns the release. Single-device save passed, but cross-device conflict testing and rollback rehearsal remain open. Ask for readiness checks and criteria for pausing rollout or switching the feature off.What to check
The checklist should keep conflict testing and rehearsal open, separate launch prerequisites from monitoring, and name the owner and date. Rollback should include measurable triggers, decision ownership, and a post-disable check.

Frequently asked question
Does every staged rollout need the same checks?
Select items based on scope and reversibility. A small pilot still needs launch and stop criteria. Larger releases usually need broader communications, response coverage, and impact checks.
