What the file says
# Root Cause Analysis ## When to Use - Use this skill when you need to identify systemic root causes and contributing factors using evidence, hypotheses, and verification experiments. - Use it to review an existing plan, result, or evidence set and produce actionable improvements. - Use it when context is incomplete but a bounded first pass is still valuable. ## Output Format Options - Default to Markdown for review, execution, and incremental refinement. - When the user requests tables, CSV, JSON, or ticket fields, preserve risk, evidence, priority, and boundary information. - For machine-consumed output, confirm the schema, enums, and required fields first. ## How to Use 1. Read and follow `prompts/root-cause-analysis.md`, including its input contract, execution rules, minimum coverage, and output order. 2. Add only context that changes the decision: scope, environment, version, constraints, evidence, and success criteria. 3. Audit the input, then separate confirmed facts, working assumptions, and open questions. 4. Rank by risk and evidence strength, and produce an artifact that can be executed or reviewed directly. …
