13-factor-product-readiness Skill
Name
13-factor-product-readiness
Purpose
Audit and refactor a repository so it feels like a shippable product rather than a prototype. This Skill focuses on positioning, onboarding, product surface, docs, examples, validation, release packaging, support loops, and user retention details.
When to use
Use this Skill when:
- The user wants to make a project more publishable, usable, and memorable.
- A repository already runs, but its product story, onboarding, examples, or release quality are weak.
- The project spans multiple domains and needs a top-level product readiness pass.
- The user asks for "爆款开源产品", release readiness, launch readiness, or product polish.
When not to use
Do not use this Skill as the only review for deeply technical subsystems. Pair it with a domain Skill such as 12-factor-agents, 12-factor-app, 10-factor-html, 8-factor-github-actions, 9-factor-rag, 7-factor-mcp, or 11-factor-cli when implementation quality also needs detailed review.
Inputs
Inspect README, product positioning, screenshots or demos, examples, quickstart, docs, CLI/API surface, configuration, tests, workflows, changelog, release notes, roadmap, issue templates, and any onboarding or support material.
Workflow
- Identify the target user, product promise, and primary use case.
- Check whether a new user can understand value within 30 seconds.
- Check whether a new user can run the project within 5 minutes.
- Review examples, docs, validation commands, release files, and support loops.
- Score with
scoring-rubric.md. - Produce an audit report using
audit-report-template.md. - Produce a prioritized launch-readiness refactor plan using
refactor-plan-template.md. - Recommend a primary domain Skill for deeper technical follow-up if needed.
Review dimensions
- Product promise and target user
- First-run onboarding and quickstart
- Demo, screenshots, examples, and recipes
- Installation, configuration, and validation path
- Error messages, logs, and failure recovery
