Launch Window Planner
Picks when to launch — the timing lever of the RAMP loop Research phase. It scans industry-event and conference cycles, maps the competitor launch calendar, pads for store-review latency, chooses a launch-week vs rolling format, and defines the embargo window (lift moment + timezone). It feeds the RAMP-R timing sub-item ("timing window chosen deliberately — event cycles, competitor calendar, review-latency buffers") and the RAMP-M embargo-coordination sub-item ("embargo & partner commitments coordinated against one authoritative date/stage") per ramp-benchmark.md. It works one lever — timing — and hands off.
The window this skill recommends is a proposal, not the record: date, stage, and embargo facts become authoritative only when launch-registry records them. This skill submits candidates and never writes the registry directly.
Scope guard: this skill picks the window only. It does not judge whether a cultural moment or trend is worth riding (that is trend-spotter), run the launch day itself (launch-day-conductor owns the hour-blocked runbook), declare the launch tier or own the risk register (launch-tier-planner), write the canonical date/stage/embargo record (launch-registry is the sole writer of memory/launch-registry/), or compute the RAMP profile result (launch-readiness-auditor). It works one lever and hands off.
Quick Start
Pick a launch window for [product] in [quarter]. Constraints: [team availability / store-review submission / partner commitments].
Map the competitor launch calendar and industry events around [candidate date] — should we move?
