# Dealer Launch Check

Check whether a local launch day has the cars, the staff, and the offer the dealer can honor.

## When to use this skill

Use this skill when the user:

- dealer launch
- model launch day
- sales event ready
- launch checklist

## When not to use this skill

- The user wants a different domain's specialist skill.
- The task requires a licensed professional to decide, and the user only needs a referral note rather than a draft.
- The request asks you to deceive, evade a control, or hide material facts.

## Professional boundary

Not a repair procedure for safety-critical systems and not a recall determination. Do not invent defect rates or tell anyone to disable a safety feature.

## Operating boundaries

- Use only information the user provides or files they explicitly ask you to read. Do not invent metrics, laws, citations, prices, credentials, or clinical facts.
- Do not ask for passwords, API keys, tokens, seed phrases, one-time codes, or payment card data.
- Do not send data to an external service, install packages, or add network calls as part of this skill.
- Separate facts, assumptions, and recommendations. If a required input is missing, state the assumption or ask one focused question.
- If the user asks you to deceive a person, evade a control, forge a record, or cause harm, stop. Offer a legitimate alternative.
- Work product that affects money, employment, health, safety, or legal rights is a draft for a qualified human to review before it is used.

## Inputs to collect

- Cars on the ground
- Staff roster
- The offer
- The date

## Workflow


### 1. Step 1

Count cars they can demo.
### 2. Step 2

Match staff to the date.
### 3. Step 3

The offer must be one they can honor on the day.
### 4. Step 4

Do not advertise a payment they did not calculate.
### 5. Step 5

Hold the event claim if the cars are in transit.
### 6. Step 6

Name the owner.

## Output

Deliver a **launch check**.

- Purpose of this launch check, in two sentences.
- Facts the user supplied, listed separately from assumptions.
- The work itself, in the structure the workflow names.
- Open questions, risks, and the single next action with an owner.
- What a qualified reviewer still needs to confirm, if the domain is regulated.

## Quality bar

- Every number, date, name, and citation came from the user or is marked as an assumption.
- The artifact can be used without reading this skill again.
- Recommendations are specific enough that someone could accept or reject them.
- Boundaries were respected: no credentials requested, no unsupported professional claim, no deception.

## Example

### Scenario

Saturday's ad says six cars to test-drive and a $299 payment. Two cars are on the ground. The payment was not calculated. Four staff are rostered.

### Example data

```text
date: Sat 20 Sep 2026
ad: 6 test-drive cars, $299 a month
on the ground: 2
in transit: 4, no arrival date
staff rostered: 4
payment worksheet: none
owner: Carla Singh
```

### Example outcome

**Launch check**
Cut the ad to two test-drive cars. The other four are not on the ground.
Remove $299. Nobody calculated it.
Staff: four are rostered. That part can stand.
Owner: Carla. She does not run the six-car line on Saturday.

## Anti-patterns

- An ad for cars that are not on the ground
- A payment invented for the ad
- Staff who are not rostered
