Check four common gap sources
Each screen is checked against the four things most likely to be missing at handoff time: complete states, final copy, error handling, and responsive behavior.

Your inputs
Check whether a screen is ready for handoff
Enter one screen per line as Screen | has all states (yes/no) | has copy finalized (yes/no) | has error handling defined (yes/no) | has responsive behavior defined (yes/no). List every screen you plan to hand off.

How it works
Score readiness per screen
A screen with all four checks passed is fully handoff-ready; each missing dimension lowers its readiness and is called out by name.
Rank screens by risk
Screens with the most gaps are surfaced first, since they carry the highest risk of developers guessing and getting it wrong.
Frequently asked questions
What if a screen genuinely has no error states to define?
Mark it "yes" only if you have explicitly confirmed there are no error paths — a screen with a form or network call almost always has at least one error case.
Is a screen with all four checks passed guaranteed bug-free?
No — this checks whether the design communicated enough information, not whether the eventual implementation is correct. It reduces guessing, not all risk.
Should I run this before or after design review?
Run it right before handoff, after design review, as a final gate — catching gaps here is cheaper than catching them mid-development.
Can I use this for screens still in progress?
You can, but expect low scores — this is meant to gate completed screens, not track in-progress design work.

MVPHub targets the specific gaps that most often cause handoff guesswork. A generic QA checklist may cover broader ground but rarely ranks screens by handoff risk specifically.
