Use when the user asks to "monitor my launch", "track our Product Hunt / Hacker News ranking", or "watch the launch window"; runs the T-0 to T+30 window watch — pre-launch instrumentation verification (UTM/event checks, the upstream of RAMP P1), HN rank/points/comments polling with a comments-over-points flamewar early-warning (Estimated heuristic), PH votes/featured status, store charts and reviews, news echo, D0/W1/M1 KPI snapshots vs targets, spike-vs-sustain and owned-capture reads, and alert thresholds against the launch-tier KPI targets. Not for launch-day go/rollback calls — use launch-day-conductor; not for metric deep-dives — use performance-analyzer; not for SEO rank tracking — use rank-tracker. 发布监控/排名轮询/火焰战比/spike-sustain

Watches the launch window — T-0 through T+30 — so traction is verifiable while it happens, not reconstructed afterwards. It is the first Prove-phase skill in the RAMP loop: its pre-launch mode verifies measurement instrumentation on every launch surface (the direct upstream of the P1 veto — untagged surfaces make traction unverifiable), and its window mode feeds the RAMP P sub-items for instrumentation, per-channel attribution reconciled against own analytics, KPI actuals vs targets at D0/W1/M1, spike-vs-sustain retention, and owned-capture rate. The live watch itself is the evidence behind the M live-monitoring-coverage sub-item.
Telemetry comes from keyless or free-key connectors — scripts/connectors/hn.py (keyless), scripts/connectors/producthunt.py (free-key developer token; non-commercial API ToS — business use needs Product Hunt approval, attribution required), scripts/connectors/appstore.py (keyless documented endpoints), scripts/connectors/gdelt.py (news echo) — and degrades to user-pasted values when a connector or key is missing. It works one lever — window telemetry — and hands off.
Scope guard: this skill watches and alerts; it does not decide. Launch-day go/rollback calls belong to launch-day-conductor; metric deep-dives and channel diagnosis to performance-analyzer; SEO position tracking to rank-tracker; feedback-theme triage to launch-feedback-synthesizer; the retro verdict to launch-retro-analyzer; the RAMP profile result and the P1 veto to launch-readiness-auditor. Monitoring past T+30 is not a launch task — hand it to performance-monitor; always-on brand/community listening outside a launch window is social-pulse-monitor's job.
Monitor my launch — we go live [date] on [HN / Product Hunt / App Store]. KPI targets: [D0 / W1 / M1].
Verify my launch instrumentation before [date] — here are the launch surfaces and the UTM plan.
Pull a D0 snapshot: HN rank/points/comments, PH votes, store chart position, news mentions — vs our targets.
Expected output: a pre-launch instrumentation verification report (per-surface UTM/event pass-fail) or a window telemetry read — polling log, flamewar/anomaly alerts, D0/W1/M1 KPI snapshot vs targets, spike-vs-sustain and owned-capture reads — every number labeled Measured / User-provided / Estimated, plus the standard handoff summary.

Tier-1 default is keyless/free-key: scripts/connectors/hn.py (keyless Algolia + Firebase — rank, points, comments), scripts/connectors/producthunt.py (free-key developer token — votes, featured status), scripts/connectors/appstore.py (keyless documented endpoints — charts, ratings/metadata; review text stays a manual pull, see the CONNECTORS.md zombie-recipe note), scripts/connectors/gdelt.py (news echo; ≥5s between calls). When a connector is missing or its key is unset, degrade to the manual path: ask the user to paste the numbers and label them User-provided — never skip a snapshot because a connector is down. Attribution truth is the user's own ~~web analytics export (GA4 or store console, ~~app store data); platform self-reported counts are reference-only. Optional ~~brand monitor / ~~launch platform MCP servers are a Tier-2/3 convenience, never required. See CONNECTORS.md.

not-yet-due; do not fail simply because launch has not happened. In window/outcome mode, bind the read to required action IDs, matching receipts, and the measurement contract: a missing/partial receipt for an action already due or attempted keeps that lane OPEN even if telemetry is visible. No targets means NEEDS_INPUT. Follow Launch Action Control.P1 upstream) — walk every launch surface: UTM parameters present and consistent, conversion/signup events firing on a test hit, landing URLs resolving. Report per-surface pass/fail; an unverifiable surface is a named blocker for launch-readiness-auditor, not a silent pass.gdelt.py needs ≥5s between calls; keep HN/PH polling to a few reads per hour — a launch is hours long, not seconds). Connector missing → schedule manual paste checkpoints instead.scripts/connectors/hn.py. When comments outpace points, flag it as a possible flamewar early-warning so the reply owner engages in the thread — this ratio is an Estimated heuristic (community folklore, minimaxir/hacker-news-undocumented), not a platform rule or a verdict. Never suggest vote solicitation or timing tricks in response to any signal; day-of act/rollback calls route to launch-day-conductor.M1-class violation the gate owns).On user confirmation, save to memory/launch/launch-monitor/YYYY-MM-DD-<topic>.md — see Skill Contract §Save Results Template. Ask first: "Save these results for future sessions?" Registry-grade facts (stage, dates, outcome snapshot) go only to memory/events/launches.ndjson via an authorized operation: propose request to registry-events.py for launch-registry to formalize.
