What EOL Readiness Advisor does

EOL Readiness Advisor runs a go/no-go assessment for retiring a product or feature, then right-sizes the effort. Use it when someone says "we should probably kill this" and nobody has made the call.

EOL Readiness Advisor is cataloged under Quality on DirSkills. EOL Readiness Advisor comes from a repository tagged ai-agents, ai-product-management, claude-skills, pm-frameworks and product-management.

Documentation

README

EOL Readiness Advisor

Purpose

Decide whether a product or feature should actually be retired — and if so, how much machinery the retirement deserves. This skill produces a go/no-go verdict with named evidence, an intensity level you choose, and a short list of the obligations that will bite you if ignored.

Most EOL guidance assumes the decision is already made and jumps to the plan. This skill sits earlier: it is the conversation where "we should probably kill this" becomes a decision someone will defend in a room.

It is equally willing to tell you not to retire. A "hold" or "harvest" verdict is a real outcome here, not a consolation prize.
