Ship Focus

When the thing has grown beyond what you set out to do, this skill looks at what's actually changed, compares it to the original intent, and tells you what to cut and what to finish.

Process

1. Establish the original intent

Determine what the user originally set out to build, from one of these sources (in priority order):

1. The user's argument to this command
2. Recent conversation history (look for the initial task description or /ship:think output)
3. Ask: "In one sentence, what did you sit down to build?"

Capture this as a single sentence. This is the anchor everything gets measured against.

2. Read the profile

Check .claude/ship.local.md for context. Read the product brief — the "What moves the needle" section is your reference for what matters. If the drift is toward something that serves a needle-mover, it might be worth keeping. If it's away from all of them, cut it.
