What problem does it solve? Launching a game on Steam involves dozens of configuration steps across the Steamworks Partner site, and missing any one of them can delay release or cause day-one failures. This Skill provides a structured pre-release validation checklist so nothing is overlooked before setting a build live. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Comprehensive Launch Checklist: Walks through 11 sections covering store page assets, depot configuration, achievements, cloud saves, Steam Deck compatibility, multiplayer, leaderboards, pricing, and marketing prep. - MCP-Assisted Verification: Uses the Steam MCP server to check live store page data, achievement stats, and player counts against checklist requirements. - Pitfall Guidance: Flags common launch mistakes such as late store page review submission, missing redistributables, and skipping the coming soon period. - Use Case: A developer with App ID 2345678 asks what to check before launch; the Skill fetches store data, flags that only 3 screenshots exist (Valve recommends 5), and produces a prioritized list of remaining action items. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to run the Steam release checklist for your game by providing your App ID and release type.
