Use when
Trigger signals that make this skill the right owner
- design fallback degradation timeout bulkhead circuit breaker and recovery behavior
Do not use when
Anti-triggers — as binding as the triggers above
- no task-local degradation circuit breaking decision is required
Required inputs
What must be supplied before this skill can decide anything
- current task contract
- selected primary Professional Skill
- task-local trigger evidence
Output contract
What this skill owes the next role
- resilience plan with timeouts fallbacks circuit thresholds and recovery checks, evidence, and proof limits
Escalation signals
When this skill must hand the decision back
- No degradation path turns dependency failures into full outages
Loaded by
This skill never owns a task. These professionals may pull it in as Layer 3.
Targeted references
Each reference carries its own load condition. None of them enter context by default.
| Reference | Load when | Do not load when | Required by |
|---|---|---|---|
| benchmarks-and-patterns.mdbenchmark-pattern | Timeout, retry, circuit, fallback, or shedding parameters remain open. | No dependency failure policy or latency budget changes. | AnalysisTaskReview |
| checklist.mddecision-checklist | Failure handling spans overload, cancellation, stale fallback, or recovery. | The affected path has no fallible dependency. | AnalysisTaskReview |
| evidence-patterns.mdevidence-pattern | Resilience claims need fresh fault tests or telemetry artifacts. | No fallback or recovery claim needs proof. | AnalysisTaskReview |
