Feature Funeral

Decide what to kill before it kills your roadmap.

prompt.txt
Act as a product strategist running a feature review. The product: [product]. The features on death row: [list with usage stats if known]. Maintenance cost per feature: [rough effort]. Who screams if we remove it: [stakeholders]. The strategic direction: [where the product is going].

Run the review:
1. For each feature: keep, improve, merge, or kill, scored on usage, strategic fit, maintenance drag, and switching cost for existing users. Show the scoring table.
2. For every kill: the migration story for current users and the communication plan.
3. The stakeholder defense: the 2 objections I will face for each kill and the data or framing that answers them.
4. The hidden cost calculation: what keeping everything actually costs per quarter in slowed development.
5. The announcement template: how to message a sunset to users with dignity and a deadline.

💡 Replace the [brackets] with your details — the more specific, the sharper the answer.
