Run the **Ship an MCP Server** workflow recipe for: $ARGUMENTS This is a *chain* of skills. Run each stage in order and **carry every stage's output forward as context** for the next. Open with a one-line plan of the 4 stages, then ask once for any essential missing inputs (the product's top user jobs, the existing API surface, the riskiest actions, current pricing model). Don't re-ask between stages. Run each stage under a clear `## Stage N — <name>` heading: 1. **Spec the server** — apply the `mcp-server-spec` skill: a task-shaped toolset (3-10 tools, never an API mirror), auth model, gated actions, the never-exposed list, and the agent test plan. 2. **Audit readiness** — apply the `agent-readiness-audit` skill across all six surfaces (discovery, docs, API/auth, errors, onboarding, guardrails), quoting the failing artifacts; feed the spec from stage 1 so the audit checks against what will actually ship. 3. **Fix the pricing** — apply the `agent-era-pricing` skill: the value metric that survives non-human users, tier fences with named gaming vectors, and cannibalisation math on representative cohorts — informed by which tools stage 1 exposed and what usage they'll drive. 4. **Design the oversight** — apply the `human-in-the-loop-design` skill to every gated action from stage 1: action tiers, the approval budget, escalation rules, and the audit trail. Close with a **one-page rollout summary**: the toolset, the top 3 readiness fixes, the pricing decision, and the approval policy — the packet an eng lead and a pricing owner could execute from.
Design a 360-degree feedback survey or write a structured 360 feedback report. Use when asked to build a 360 feedback process, write 360 feedback for a colleague, design a feedback survey, or produce a feedback report. Produces either a complete survey instrument with rating scales and open-ended questions, or a structured narrative feedback report with themes, strengths, and development areas.
Decode a 401k or workplace retirement plan — the real cost of its funds, the match's fine print, vesting math, and the plan features worth using or avoiding. Use when someone asks 'is my 401k any good', 'decode my 401k plan', 'which funds should I look at', or 'what fees am I paying'. Produces a fee decode in dollars-over-time, match and vesting math, a fund-lineup triage by cost, and the questions for HR or the plan administrator.
Design statistically rigorous A/B tests for product features, UI changes, onboarding flows, and pricing experiments. Use when asked to set up an experiment, design an A/B test, calculate sample size, or interpret test results. Produces a complete test plan with hypothesis, variant definitions, sample size, duration estimate, guardrail metrics, and a results interpretation guide.
Analyse a finished A/B test and write the readout — the result, whether it's statistically and practically significant, what it means, and the ship/no-ship call. Use when asked to analyse experiment results, write an A/B test readout, interpret test data, or decide whether to ship a variant. Produces a clear verdict with the lift and confidence, segment cuts, the risks (peeking, novelty, sample), and a recommendation. Distinct from planning a test — this reads results.
Generate a WCAG 2.2 accessibility audit checklist and remediation suggestions for any UI or design. Use when asked to audit for accessibility, check WCAG compliance, review a design for a11y issues, or create an accessibility remediation plan. Produces a prioritised checklist with pass/fail assessments and specific fixes.
Plan a trip that actually works with a disability or access need — confirm real accessibility (not just 'accessible' labels), book the assistance in advance, plan for equipment and medication, and build in the contingencies for when access breaks down. Use when someone says 'plan an accessible trip', 'travelling with a wheelchair/disability', 'book assistance for my flight', or 'will this hotel actually work for me'. Produces an access-verified itinerary, an assistance-booking checklist, an equipment/medication plan, and contingency scripts. Verify specifics with providers.
Request a reasonable accommodation at work or in education — frame it around the barrier and the adjustment (not your diagnosis), cite the right process, and navigate the back-and-forth constructively. Use when someone says 'I need a workplace accommodation', 'request reasonable adjustments', 'ADA/Equality Act accommodation', or 'how do I ask for accommodations for my disability/condition'. Produces the request letter, a barriers-and-adjustments map, disclosure guidance, and a plan for the interactive process. Not legal advice — routes to the formal process and to advocacy where needed.
Build a structured account plan for any key customer or target account. Use when asked to create an account plan, key account strategy, strategic account review, or territory plan. Produces a complete account plan with relationship map, growth opportunities, risks, and 90-day action plan.
