From the source SKILL.md

Get the smallest live version of a side project shipped and posted in a weekend. Then let signal decide what is next. This is not a roadmap. It is the opposite of one.

What this skill does

Ship V1 is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the roadmap sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/ship-v1/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.

When to invoke it: Use whenever the user wants to start or launch a side project, says "I have an idea", "what should I build", "help me ship this", "turn this into an MVP", "weekend project", or "I keep starting projects and never finish", or has an early product with no users yet. Trigger even when the words "ship" or "v1" are absent → any time someone has an unvalidated product idea and needs it live fast.

Who uses this skill

The Ship V1 Claude Code skill is built for product managers, product designers, and cross-functional teams planning, shipping, and measuring product features. It's part of ClaudSkills (also referred to as Claude Skills or Claude Code Skills) — the open community-curated registry of 147,000+ SKILL.md files for Anthropic's Claude Code agent and the wider Claude ecosystem (Claude API, Claude Agent SDK).
