Use when

Trigger signals that make this skill the right owner

  • protect a named prior failure mechanism and materially reachable same pattern variants from recurrence

Do not use when

Anti-triggers — as binding as the triggers above

  • no accepted defect incident review finding or equivalent recurrence mechanism exists

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

  • recurrence map with failure mechanism, guard boundary, counterfactual evidence, fixture fidelity, same-pattern coverage, freshness, and residual risk

Escalation signals

When this skill must hand the decision back

  • Safe reproduction counterfactual proof same-pattern coverage or compensating-detection ownership remains unresolved

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.
