What it does
Launch Metrics is an agent skill from amplitude/builder-skills. Set up measurement and tracking for product launches, run post-launch retros with data, and build a launch analytics system. Use this skill whenever someone asks to track a launch, set up UTM parameters, measure launch performance, run a launch retro, analyze launch results, or build a dashboard for a product release. Also trigger for "how do we know if the launch worked," "what should we track for this launch," "set up UTMs for the announcement," or any request about measuring or evaluating a product launch…
Its SKILL.md is about 2.2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in Marketing & SEO, covering Marketing analytics, Product launch strategy and OKRs and executive reporting. The repository describes itself as: Open-source AI skills for product managers — battle-tested by PMs at Amplitude.
When your agent uses it
- Someone asks to track a launch
- Set up UTM parameters
- Measure launch performance
- Run a launch retro
Example prompts
- “how do we know if the launch worked,”
- “what should we track for this launch,”
- “set up UTMs for the announcement,”
- “/launch-metrics”
Workflow steps
4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- UTM parameters — Tag every link in every distribution channel
- Analytics events — Instrument the conversion funnel end-to-end
- Baseline capture — Record current metrics before launch so you can measure lift
- Dashboard or view — One place to watch all key metrics on launch day
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 51838c2. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Launch Metrics loads about 2.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 160 tokens; SKILL.md has 969 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.
SKILL.md
Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 969 words (~2,191 tokens).
“This skill covers how to measure product launches — what to set up before launch day, what to track during, and how to evaluate results afterward. Without consistent measurement, launches are guesswork. With it, each launch informs the next.”
