incident-runbook 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.

incident-runbook from byerlikaya/claude-starter-kit is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned

Incident response: diagnose → mitigate → resolve, then a blameless postmortem and a repeatable runbook. Stop the impact first, root cause second. Use when production is degraded or broken, an outage keeps recurring, or for the postmortem.

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

# Incident Response & Runbook

<!-- routing-eval reads the next line; why it sits in the body: AGENT_TEMPLATE.md -->
Trigger phrases: "incident", "incident response", "runbook", "postmortem", "root cause", "outage", "production incident", "post-incident"

Two modes: **live incident** (what to do right now) and **aftermath** (postmortem + runbook). Priority: stopping
user impact > finding the root cause. No panic, one ordered step at a time.

## Live incident — sequence
1. **Acknowledge & classify** — what is the impact (who, how much), severity (SEV1 full outage … SEV3 minor).
2. **Mitigate the impact FIRST** — rollback, turn off a feature flag, shift traffic, scale up. Without waiting on the root cause.
3. **Single coordinator** — it is clear who decides; communication goes through one channel.
4. **Diagnose** — last change? (deploy/migration/config) narrow it down with logs+metrics+traces (observability).
5. **Resolve** — the smallest safe fix; then verify (health check).
6. **Close** — confirm the impact is over; note the timeline (a postmortem input).

## Mitigation reflexes
- Last deploy suspect → **rollback** (deploy revert).

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add byerlikaya/claude-starter-kit/incident-runbook@sha256:d75caf94b8079b05

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261015.84a7109, 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.
