What this skill does
Instantly Production Readiness Gate Overview Return a fail-closed readiness decision backed by test and approval evidence. Record assumptions, evidence, approval state, and rollback ownership so another operator can reproduce the result. Prerequisites The target repository, Instantly workspace, environment, and accountable owner Current security, privacy, compliance, capacity, and change-control requirements An approved API v2 key only when a bounded live verification is necessary Tool Discipline Use Read, Glob, and Grep to inspect code, configuration, and evidence. Use WebFetch only for current first-party Instantly documentation and package metadata. Use Write or Edit only when implementation was requested and exact target files are known; never write credentials, lead data, email content, or unrestricted environment output. Current Contract A green deploy is not authorization to activate campaigns or connect accounts. Keys, workspace-group delegation, webhook delivery, background jobs, and endpoint limits need explicit owners. Dynamic plan and entitlement facts must be rechecked at launch. Authentication Use an API v2 key as Authorization: Bearer <key> against https://api.instantly.ai/api/v2. Grant only the endpoint-specific scopes needed, inject the key from an approved server-side secret manager, and never print, persist, commit, or place it in a URL. Treat key creation, rotation, revocation, member changes, workspace delegation, and production access as owner-approved actions. Instructions 1. Verify release SHA, runtime, SDK/CLI pins, schema source, and rollback artifact. 2. Verify workspace identity, least-privilege keys, rotation, audit, and secret storage. 3. Verify consent, suppression, minimization, redaction, retention, and deletion controls. 4. Verify workspace and endpoint limits, pagination, batching, idempotency, and job polling. 5. Verify dashboards, alerts, incident runbook, webhook recovery, and support evidence. 6. …
