- incident-responseanthropics/knowledge-work-pluginsRun an incident response workflow — triage, communicate, and write postmortem. Trigger with "we have an incident", "production is down", an alert that needs severity assessment, a status update mid-incident, or when writing a blameless postmortem after resolution.OfficialWriting★ 33.5K
- incident-managementcbrock84/headcountRuns an operational incident from detection to closed action — declaring it and naming a commander, separating the people restoring service from the people communicating, keeping a timeline as it happens, deciding when it is over, and running a review that produces a small number of changes someone actually completes. Use this to set up an incident process, run one, work out why the same failure keeps recurring, or fix a review practice that generates findings nobody closes.Engineering★ 2.2K
- blameless-postmortemTibsfox/gsd-skill-creatorGoogle SRE-style blameless postmortem authoring. Structure, timeline construction, contributing-factor extraction, action-item discipline, and the cultural practices that make postmortems produce learning rather than theater. Use when writing a postmortem after an incident, reviewing a draft postmortem, running a postmortem review meeting, building a postmortem template, or teaching a team how to write postmortems that actually improve the system. Complements rca-human-factors (for the "why people did what they did" analysis) and the rca-classical-methods / rca-systems-theoretic / rca-causal-inference / rca-distributed-systems skills (which supply the investigation techniques that populate the postmortem's analysis section).Finance★ 71
- write-a-postmorteminkeep/open-knowledgeWrite a blameless incident postmortem under postmortems/ following the Google SRE shape — evidence-based timeline, trigger vs root cause vs symptom, contributing factors, what went well, and owned+dated+verifiable action items. Read when asked to write a postmortem, do an incident review, run a root cause analysis, write up the outage, retro on the outage, or when the user says we had an incident and wants it documented. Do NOT read to frame a proposal (use frame-a-proposal), write a spec (use write-a-spec), record a decision (use record-a-decision), or review a design (use review-a-design) — a postmortem documents an incident that already happened, it does not propose, specify, decide, or critique future work.Writing★ 4.7K
