resilience-audit SKILL.md skillA

This file is byte-identical to the first copy the registry indexed. Same content hash, so the same checks give both the same grade.

resilience-audit from thecolliery/coalmine is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add thecolliery/coalmine/resilience-audit@git:20260922.d210e8a

Pins git:20260922.d210e8a in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Failure-mode audit (FMEA for software) — for each way the system can fail (network, storage, partial completion, crash, concurrency, bad input), check whether code DETECTS, HANDLES, RECOVERS, and COMMUNICATES it. Triggers on: "/resilience-audit", "resilience-audit", "FMEA audit". Use when touching network, storage, async, retry, or rollback paths. Flags data loss, silent-success-on-failure, missing rollback/retry/idempotency. Reports; does not fix unless asked.

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

# Resilience Audit

<!-- SHARED:LANGUAGE_HEADER -->

For every operation: **"what happens when this FAILS?"** Report; do NOT fix unless asked.

## Failure categories
1. **External I/O** — network down/slow, API 4xx/5xx/timeout, rate-limit. Retry w/ backoff? Timeout set? Clear error vs hang?
2. **Storage** — disk full, permission denied, partial write. Atomic write (temp+rename)? Cleanup on failure? Existing good copy untouched?
3. **Partial completion** — half-done op (50/100 files). Reported as FAILURE, never success.
4. **Crash / OOM** — killed mid-op. Idempotent restart? No orphaned half-state?
5. **Concurrency** — two instances, race, deadlock. Locking / idempotency / safe re-entry?
6. **Input / data** — malformed, null, truncated, huge. Validate at boundary? Fail-fast?
7. **Dependency down** — fallback/cache/graceful degrade? Clear error vs silent hang?
8. **Resource exhaustion** — bounded? Backpressure? Cleanup on error path?

Per-stack timeout/atomicity/idempotency patterns to grep: read `references/checks.md` before scanning.

## For each failure point, check 4 things
- **Detected?** code notices it (doesn't swallow)?

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add thecolliery/coalmine/resilience-audit@sha256:157692aca16ed231

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260922.d210e8a, 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.
