# Ship Project - Multi-AI Delivery Validation
Finalize and deliver completed work with Multi-AI security audit, lessons capture, and archival.
**Core principle:** Verify ready -> Multi-AI audit -> Capture lessons -> Archive -> Ship.
---
## When to Use
**Use this skill when user asks:**
- "Ship the project" or "We're done"
- "Finalize this" or "Let's deliver"
- "Complete the project" or "Ready to ship"
- "Mark as shipped" or "Time to deliver"
**Do NOT use for:**
- Code review (use /octo:review or flow-deliver)
- Implementation (use /octo:develop)
- Research (use /octo:research)
---
## The Process
### Phase 1: Verify Project Ready to Ship
#### Step 1: Check .octo/ Exists
```bash
if [[ ! -d ".octo" ]]; then
echo "No project initialized"
exit 1
fi
```
**If .octo/ does not exist:**
```markdown
## Cannot Ship
**Status:** No project initialized
No Claude Octopus project found in this directory.
Run `/octo:embrace [description]` to start a new project.
```
**STOP. Do not proceed.**
#### Step 2: Read STATE.md Status
```bash
# Check if STATE.md exists and read status
if [[ -f ".octo/STATE.md" ]]; then
# Read current status
STATUS=$(grep -E "^status:" .octo/STATE.md | cut -d':' -f2 | xargs || echo "unknown")
CURRENT_PHASE=$(grep -E "^current_phase:" .octo/STATE.md | cut -d':' -f2 | xargs || echo "unknown")
else
STATUS="unknown"
CURRENT_PHASE="unknown"
fi
echo "Status: $STATUS"
echo "Current Phase: $CURRENT_PHASE"
```
#### Step 3: Validate Ready State
**Ship is allowed when:**
- `status` = "complete" OR
- `current_phase` = "4" (Deliver phase) OR
- All four phases have entries in STATE.md history
**If not ready:**
```markdown
## Project Not Ready to Ship
**Current Status:** {status}
**Current Phase:** {current_phase}
### To prepare for shipping:
1. Complete remaining phases:
- [ ] Phase 1: Discover - Use `/octo:discover`
- [ ] Phase 2: Define - Use `/octo:define`
- [ ] Phase 3: Develop - Use `/octo:develop`
- [ ] Phase 4: Deliver - Use `/octo:deliver`
2. Or override with: "ship anyway" (not recommended)
```
**STOP unless user says "ship anyway".**
---
### Phase 2: Multi-AI Security Audit
#### Step 1: Display Visual Indicators
```bash
# Check provider availability
command -v codex &> /dev/null && codex_status="Available" || codex_status="Not installed"
command -v agy &> /dev/null && agy_status="Available" || agy_status="Not installed"
```
**Output:**
```markdown
## Multi-AI Security Audit
**Providers:**
- Codex CLI: ${codex_status} - Code security analysis
- Antigravity CLI: ${agy_status} - Additional external-model challenge
- Claude: Available - Synthesis and final validation
**Estimated Time:** 3-5 minutes
**Estimated Cost:** $0.02-0.08
```
#### Step 2: Execute orchestrate.sh Security Audit
**You MUST execute this via Bash tool:**
```bash
# Run Multi-AI security audit for delivery
"${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/scripts/orchestrate.sh" ink "Security audit for delivery - comprehensive review of all code changes for production readiness"
```
## MANDATORY COMPLIANCE
**CRITICAL: You are PROHIBITED from:**
- Skipping Multi-AI validation
- Doing single-provider analysis instead
- Claiming you're "simulating" the audit
- Proceeding without running orchestrate.sh
#### Step 3: Verify Audit Completed
```bash
# Find the latest validation file
VALIDATION_FILE=$(find ~/.claude-octopus/results -name "ink-validation-*.md" -mmin -10 2>/dev/null | head -n1)
if [[ -z "$VALIDATION_FILE" ]]; then
echo "AUDIT FAILED: No validation file found"
exit 1
fi
echo "AUDIT COMPLETE: $VALIDATION_FILE"
```
#### Step 4: Display Audit Summary
Read validation file and present:
- Overall status (PASSED / PASSED WITH WARNINGS / FAILED)
- Quality score
- Critical issues (must fix before ship)
- Warnings (should fix)
**If FAILED with critical issues:**
```markdown
## Audit Failed - Cannot Ship
Critical issues must be resolved before shipping:
1. [Issue 1 from validation]
2. [Issue 2 from validation]
Resolve issues and run `/octo:ship` again.
```
**STOP if critical issues found.**
---
### Phase 3: Capture Lessons Learned
#### Step 1: Ask User for Lessons
```markdown
## Lessons Learned
Before finalizing, let's capture what we learned from this project.
**Please answer the following:**
1. **What went well?** (What worked better than expected?)
2. **What could improve?** (What would you do differently?)
3. **Key learnings?** (What insights will you carry forward?)
*Reply with your answers, or type "skip" to proceed without capturing lessons.*
```
**Wait for user response.**
#### Step 2: Append to LESSONS.md
If user provides lessons (not "skip"):
```bash
# Generate timestamp
TIMESTAMP=$(date '+%Y-%m-%d')
# Ensure LESSONS.md exists
touch .octo/LESSONS.md
# Append lessons
cat >> .octo/LESSONS.md << EOF
## ${TIMESTAMP} - Project Delivery
### What Went Well
- ${USER_WHAT_WENT_WELL}
### What Could Improve
- ${USER_WHAT_COULD_IMPROVE}
### Key Learnings
- ${USER_KEY_LEARNINGS}
EOF
```
**Count total lessons:**
```bash
LESSON_COUNT=$(grep -c "^## " .octo/LESSONS.md 2>/dev/null || echo "0")
echo "Total lessons captured: $LESSON_COUNT"
```
---
### Phase 4: Archive Project State
#### Step 1: Create Archive Directory
```bash
# Generate timestamp for archive
ARCHIVE_TIMESTAMP=$(date +%Y%m%d-%H%M%S)
ARCHIVE_DIR=".octo/archive/${ARCHIVE_TIMESTAMP}"
# Create archive directory
mkdir -p "$ARCHIVE_DIR"
```
#### Step 2: Copy State Files to Archive
```bash
# Archive STATE.md if exists
if [[ -f ".octo/STATE.md" ]]; then
cp .octo/STATE.md "$ARCHIVE_DIR/"
fi
# Archive PROJECT.md if exists
if [[ -f ".octo/PROJECT.md" ]]; then
cp .octo/PROJECT.md "$ARCHIVE_DIR/"
fi
# Archive ROADMAP.md if exists
if [[ -f ".octo/ROADMAP.md" ]]; then
cp .octo/ROADMAP.md "$ARCHIVE_DIR/"
fi
# Archive ISSUES.md if exists
if [[ -f ".octo/ISSUES.md" ]]; then
cp .octo/ISSUES.md "$ARCHIVE_DIR/"
fi
echo "Archived to: $ARCHIVE_DIR"
