Small teams often oscillate between big-bang releases and endless refinement. A weekly ship is not about velocity theatre. It is about making integration and review habitual.

The skeleton of the week

Monday — agree the one outcome that must be true by Friday.
Midweek — merge thin slices; avoid “almost done” branches.
Thursday — demo internally; capture risks, not new scope.
Friday — release or document why not, with a dated follow-up.

Shipped does not always mean customer-facing. It can be an internal tool, a migration behind a flag, or documentation that removes ambiguity.
