Graceful degradation through cascading fallback strategies - ensures system always completes while maintaining acceptable functionality.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Cascade Workflow with Graceful Degradation Skill

## Purpose

Implement graceful degradation through cascading fallback strategies. When optimal approaches fail or timeout, the system automatically falls back to simpler, more reliable alternatives while maintaining acceptable functionality.

## When to Use This Skill

**USE FOR:**

- External service dependencies (APIs, databases)
- Time-sensitive operations with acceptable degraded modes
- Operations where partial results are better than no results
- High-availability requirements (system must always respond)
- Scenarios where waiting for perfect solution is worse than good-enough solution

**AVOID FOR:**

- Operations requiring exact correctness (no acceptable degradation)
- Security-critical operations (authentication, authorization)
- Financial transactions (no room for "approximate")
- When failures must surface to user (diagnostic operations)
- Simple operations with no meaningful fallback

## Configuration

### Core Parameters

**Timeout Strategy:**

- `aggressive` - Fast failures, quick degradation (5s / 2s / 1s)
- `balanced` - Reasonable attempts (30s / 10s / 5s) - **DEFAULT**

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add rysweet/amplihack-rs/cascade-workflow@sha256:4e800d5948d99a64

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
