Assist with Harness Service Reliability Management (SRM) tasks that the MCP server currently supports: pulling recent deployments for incident correlation, generating on-call handover reports from deployment/execution history, and drafting operational runbooks. Use when asked about SLOs, error budgets, burn-rate alerts, on-call handover, runbooks, or incident triage. Do NOT use for DORA metrics (use dora-metrics instead) or chaos experiments (use chaos-experiment instead). Trigger phrases…

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

# Manage SLOs / SRM

> **Limitation:** The MCP server does not currently expose `slo`, `slo_alert`, or
> `monitored_service` resource types. SLO definitions, burn-rate alerts, and monitored-service
> configuration must be created and edited via the Harness UI under
> **Service Reliability Management**. This skill covers the parts of the SRM workflow that
> *are* supported via MCP: deployment correlation, on-call handover reports, and operational
> runbooks.

## What this skill can do via MCP

| Workflow | Supported today |
|---|---|
| Define an SLO or SLI | ❌ Use the Harness UI |
| Configure error-budget / burn-rate alerts | ❌ Use the Harness UI |
| Configure a monitored service | ❌ Use the Harness UI |
| Correlate deployments with an incident | ✅ via `execution` |
| Summarize recent releases for on-call handover | ✅ via `execution`, `service`, `environment` |
| Draft an operational runbook | ✅ (LLM-authored; pulls context from MCP) |

## Instructions

### Step 1: Establish Scope

```
Call MCP tool: harness_list
Parameters:
  resource_type: "project"
  org_id: "<organization>"
```

### Step 2: Incident Triage — Correlate Deployments

When the user reports an active incident:

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add harness/harness-skills/manage-slos@sha256:4f89a40f25f0cf07

The line at the top of this page pins the label v2.0.0, 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.
