Diagnoses failures and retries with alternate strategies. Use for: heal this error, self recover, fix failure automatically, retry smart.
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
# Self Healing Error Recovery ## When to Use - User says **heal this error** or task matches this capability - User says **self recover** or task matches this capability - User says **fix failure automatically** or task matches this capability - User says **retry smart** or task matches this capability ## Workflow 1. Capture error message, command, and environment context. 2. Classify: transient / config / permission / logic / dependency. 3. Try up to 3 recovery strategies (retry, alternate path, dependency fix). 4. If recovered, summarize fix. If not, escalate with diagnosis. 5. Record lesson: error pattern -> successful fix. ## Integrations - `knowledge-graph-builder` - `semantic-memory-manager` - `bottleneck-resolver` ## Error Handling | Failure | Response | |---------|----------| | Destructive command failed | Do not auto-retry deletes; require HITL. | | Same error 3x | Stop retrying; report root cause. | | Permission denied | Never escalate privileges; ask user. | ## Gotchas - Read-only diagnosis first; mutate only after classification. ## Example **Input:** User request matching triggers above. …

How to install
mdr add stijnman/grok-custom-skills/self-healing-error-recovery@sha256:7cc2ec88cfebbb79The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.2.0, 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.
