incident-management skillA

incident-management is agent-read markdown (skill) from cbrock84/headcount: Runs an operational incident from detection to closed action — declaring it and naming a commander, separating the people restoring service from the people communicating, keeping a timeline as it happens, deciding when it is over, and running a review that produces a small number of changes someone actually completes. Use this to set up an incident process, run one, work out why the same failure keeps recurring, or fix a review practice that generates findings nobody closes..

Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.

What the file says

# Incident management

An incident is any unplanned disruption significant enough that normal work stops until it is
resolved. The discipline exists because the instincts that serve people well in ordinary work —
investigate thoroughly, decide carefully, keep everyone informed — all fail under time pressure
unless someone has structured them in advance.

This covers operational incidents generally. For security incidents, where evidence preservation
and disclosure obligations change the order of operations, see `security:incident-response`.

## Declare it, and say so out loud

The most expensive minutes are the ones spent deciding whether this is an incident. Set a low
threshold for declaring and accept that some declarations will be withdrawn — an incident stood
down after twenty minutes costs far less than one that ran for two hours as a conversation between
three people who each assumed someone else had it.

Severity should be defined in advance, in terms of customer impact rather than internal
inconvenience, with each level carrying a stated response: who is notified, how fast, and who can
be woken.

## Name a commander who does not fix anything
