# Pre Mortem

Name what could go wrong while there is still time to fix it

## What this does

You have a plan or a PRD and a launch coming, and a nagging feeling something will go wrong. This runs a pre-mortem: it sorts the risks into real problems, overblown concerns, and the unspoken ones, then says which must be fixed before launch and which can wait. Reach for it in the week before you commit.

### Top 3 things it does for you

- Stress-test a launch plan before it ships
- Separate real problems from overblown worries
- Surface the concerns nobody says out loud

A scan is named by the exact content it read, not by a version number. A different version is a different artifact, and nothing here applies to a version AIR has not scanned.

## About Pre Mortem

This runs a pre-mortem risk analysis on a PRD or launch plan. Risks are categorized as Tigers, the real problems; Paper Tigers, the overblown concerns; and Elephants, the worries nobody is saying out loud.

Each risk is then classified as launch-blocking, fast-follow, or something to track.

Use it when you are preparing for a launch, stress-testing a product plan, or trying to work out what could go wrong.

## Questions

### Is Pre Mortem safe to install?

AIR scanned this exact version of Pre Mortem and flagged nothing. AIR's verdict: safe. The verdict is named by the content that was read, at commit 020ee82501d9, so it cannot drift onto a version nobody scanned. The full report is at https://airmarket.ai/security/pre-mortem.

### How do I install Pre Mortem?

Open https://airmarket.ai/app/pre-mortem on Air Market and use the install action: Air Market hands Claude a prompt naming this exact skill, and Claude sets it up.
