service-level-management skillA

service-level-management is agent-read markdown (skill) from cbrock84/headcount: Defines and manages service levels — setting targets that reflect what customers need, measuring honestly, and handling breaches. Use this to write or negotiate an SLA, decide what to measure and at what threshold, respond to a missed service level, or work out why a service that meets its targets still has unhappy customers..

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

# Service level management

A service level is a promise with a number attached. The number is the easy part; choosing what to
measure is where these go wrong.

## Measure what the customer feels

The characteristic failure is a service meeting every target while customers are angry. It happens
when the measure is chosen for availability of data rather than relevance:

- **Uptime that excludes degraded operation.** Technically up and unusably slow is down.
- **Response time instead of resolution time.** An instant acknowledgment that resolves nothing
  measures the autoresponder.
- **Averages instead of percentiles.** A mean hides the tail, and the tail is who complains. Commit
  at p95 or p99, not the mean.
- **Measurement from inside your own perimeter**, which excludes the part of the path the customer
  actually traverses.

## Set targets you would fund

A target is a spending decision. Each added nine costs disproportionately more than the last, so the
question is never "what would be good?" but "what is the gap worth to the customer, and does it
exceed what closing it costs?"

Set the internal objective tighter than the external commitment. The gap between them is your
…
