Description
eol-message is a skill for writing an end-of-life announcement when a product, feature or plan is being retired. It sizes the message to the blast radius of the change, from a brief notice to a full phased communication, and it covers the rationale, the customer impact, the transition support and the path forward. The stated goal is to keep customer trust through a difficult transition, and the skill argues that showing care and giving a clear path reduces churn. It handles the hard case of retiring something that has no replacement. Example requests include sunsetting a legacy module that affects hundreds of accounts in December, or discontinuing a hardware line with service contracts and channel partners. You give the product or feature being retired as the argument. The skill estimates 20 to 40 minutes, and it belongs to the EOL transition theme of the product-manager-skills repository on GitHub.…
