cutover-planning

cutover-planning is a skill for Claude Code from vigneshbarani24/sap-superpowers. It costs 68 tokens per session (3,569 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A plan and operating guide for switching an SAP project into production, often during a scheduled go-live period. It covers task order, data loads, integrations, approval checkpoints, and recovery steps.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create and rehearse a cutover runbook, coordinate owners and timings, confirm interface partners are ready, run a go/no-go decision, and test rollback.
Why use it?
It reduces the risk of missed tasks, unready connected systems, and an untested way to undo the change if go-live fails.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

cutover-planning scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 10d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

SAP Cutover Planning and Execution

This skill enforces a complete, rehearsed, and evidence-based cutover plan — preventing undocumented tasks, missed dependencies, unconfirmed interface partners, and go-live without a tested rollback procedure.


Iron Laws

  1. NEVER EXECUTE CUTOVER WITHOUT AT LEAST ONE REHEARSAL. A cutover plan untested in a dress rehearsal is a hypothesis, not a plan. Surprises on go-live weekend are not recoverable.
  2. NEVER SKIP THE GO/NO-GO CHECKPOINT. Go/No-Go is a formal gate with named decision-makers and documented criteria. "We'll see how things look" is not a Go/No-Go process.
  3. ALWAYS HAVE A DOCUMENTED AND TESTED ROLLBACK PLAN. If rollback has not been rehearsed, it does not exist. The rollback plan must include time limits, decision authority, and step-by-step execution procedures.
  4. NEVER ASSUME INTERFACE PARTNERS ARE READY WITHOUT WRITTEN CONFIRMATION. Every external system, EDI partner, and third-party interface must provide written confirmation of readiness before cutover begins. Verbal confirmation is not confirmation.
  5. ALWAYS MAINTAIN A REAL-TIME CUTOVER STATUS BOARD. Every task on the runbook must have an owner, a start time, an end time, and a live status (Not Started / In Progress / Complete / Blocked). No task exists unless it is tracked.
  6. NEVER EXTEND THE CUTOVER WINDOW WITHOUT INVOKING THE ROLLBACK DECISION PROCESS. If the cutover falls behind the buffer threshold, rollback criteria must be formally evaluated — not silently extended.
  7. SEQUENCE IS NOT OPTIONAL. Technical tasks, functional tasks, and organizational tasks have hard dependencies. Executing them out of sequence causes data corruption, interface failures, and system inconsistency.

Rationalization Table

Agent Will Try To... Why It Seems Reasonable Why It Fails Counter
Skip dress rehearsal because "we know what we're doing" "The team is experienced and the plan is solid" Rehearsals expose timing errors, missing dependencies, and coordination gaps that experience cannot predict. Dress rehearsals routinely add 20-40% to planned duration. Iron Law 1: No cutover without rehearsal. If time is short, run an abbreviated rehearsal — but run it.
Omit rollback procedures because "we won't need them" "The go-live will succeed — why plan for failure?" Industry data: 15-20% of SAP go-lives require partial or full rollback. No rollback plan means rollback is uncontrolled and potentially catastrophic. Iron Law 3: Rollback plan and time limit are mandatory deliverables.
Accept verbal confirmation from interface partners "They said they'd be ready on the call" Verbal commitments are forgotten, misunderstood, and legally unenforceable. Integration failures on go-live weekend are the most common single cause of cutover extension. Iron Law 4: Written confirmation required. Email is acceptable; phone call notes are not.
Merge technical and functional cutover tasks into a single undifferentiated list "It's simpler to track everything together" Technical and functional tasks have different owners, different dependencies, and different rollback implications. Merging them obscures critical-path analysis. Checklist Step 2: Tasks must be categorized by type with ownership explicitly assigned.
Plan cutover without buffer time "The sequence is tight but achievable" Every SAP cutover has unexpected issues. Without buffer, any delay triggers a rollback decision. A 20-30% time buffer is not padding — it is risk management. Checklist Step 4: Buffer time is mandatory and must be calculated explicitly.
Treat go/no-go as a team consensus "Everyone agrees we should proceed" Consensus is not accountability. Go/No-Go requires named decision-makers who bear personal accountability for the decision. Iron Law 2: Named decision-makers documented in advance.
Use a spreadsheet cutover plan without a real-time status mechanism "Everyone can see the Excel" Static spreadsheets become stale within hours of cutover start. Real-time visibility requires a live tracking tool or dedicated war room status board. Iron Law 5: Real-time cutover status board is mandatory.
Skip DNS and RFC cutover steps because "IT will handle it" "That's an infrastructure task, not my concern" RFC connections, DNS changes, and system aliases must be sequenced precisely with functional activation. Missequencing causes connection failures that appear as functional errors. Checklist Step 5: System landscape changes are explicit cutover tasks with dependencies documented.
