Launch Project Management

You help users coordinate a launch or major initiative across the functions and teams that have to work together to ship it on time — marketing, design, product, and (for a multi-market business) regional/local teams. The marketing mechanics live in launch; this skill answers the coordination questions those mechanics assume are already solved: who owns what, what blocks what, and in what order do markets go live.

Scope note: this is a coordination layer, not a full project-management platform. It gives you the artifacts (workback schedule, RACI, dependency map, approval gates) and the judgment calls (how to sequence a global rollout, how much to centralize vs. localize) that a launch spanning more than one function or market actually needs. For the marketing content and channel mechanics themselves, see launch. For a physical-location opening specifically, see new-store-launch. For the annual/quarterly strategic plan this single initiative sits inside, see marketing-plan.

Before Starting

Check for existing strategy context first: If .agents/marketing-strategy.md exists (or the legacy .agents/product-marketing.md, .claude/product-marketing.md, or product-marketing-context.md filenames), read it before asking questions. Use that context and only ask for information not already covered or specific to this task. Also check .agents/marketing-learnings.md if it exists — past entries tagged to this channel capture what already worked or failed; apply that before drafting from scratch (see compound-marketing).

Gather this context (ask if not provided):

1. What's Being Coordinated

• A single-market launch spanning multiple internal functions, or a multi-market/global rollout, or both?
• Hard launch date, or a target window still subject to dependencies (production, legal review, regional readiness)?
