Feature flag strategy
Skill planifest/planifest-framework/planifest-framework/external-skills/feature-flag-strategy
Feature flag lifecycle governance workflow for safe rollout, blast-radius control, and cleanup discipline. Use when feature rollout needs runtime controls (targeting, staged exposure, kill-switch policy, ownership, and retirement lifecycle) and those rules are not yet explicit; do not use for statistical experiment design and analysis.From its SKILL.md

Feature Flag Strategy
Overview
Use this skill to manage feature flags as controlled release instruments, not permanent complexity.
Scope Boundaries
- Use this skill when the task matches the trigger condition described in
description. - Do not use this skill when the primary task falls outside this skill's domain.
Shared References
- Lifecycle decision rules:
references/flag-lifecycle-decision-rules.md
- Targeting and blast-radius guidance:

Templates And Assets

- Rollout plan template:

Inputs To Gather
- Rollout objective, user segments, and release risk tolerance.
- Blast-radius constraints and required kill-switch latency.
- Operational/compliance constraints and on-call readiness.
- Flag platform capabilities, dependency behavior, and telemetry coverage.
Deliverables
- Flag definition with owner, type, kill-switch, and expiry.
- Rollout plan with progression gates and rollback policy.
- Lifecycle decision record including retirement criteria.
- Verification evidence for targeting and disable behavior.
Workflow
- Decide whether a flag is warranted using
references/flag-lifecycle-decision-rules.md. - Register flags in
assets/feature-flag-catalog-template.csvwith ownership and expiry. - Define rollout and rollback using
assets/flag-rollout-plan-template.md. - Validate targeting safety using
references/flag-targeting-risk-guidance.md. - Retire flags using
assets/flag-retirement-checklist.mdonce control is no longer needed.
Quality Standard
- Every flag has owner, kill-switch, and retirement date.
- Rollout and rollback criteria are measurable and pre-defined.
- Targeting rules are auditable and operationally safe.
- Retired flags are removed from code paths, not just disabled.
Failure Conditions
- Stop when flags lack ownership, expiry, or safe disable paths.
- Stop when targeting rules create unbounded or opaque blast radius.
- Escalate when accepted rollout risk exceeds policy thresholds.
