dependent-failure-analyst

dependent-failure-analyst is an agent for Claude Code from birol91/quorum-agents. It costs 22 tokens per session (348 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An analysis guide for failures that affect multiple parts of a vehicle safety system through a shared cause or a chain reaction. It examines common-cause failures, common-mode failures, cascading failures, and interference between components.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to trace failure paths across subsystems, assess shared dependencies between redundant components, evaluate interference between safety levels, quantify common-cause risk, and recommend design changes.
Why use it?
It helps uncover weaknesses that can defeat redundant safety mechanisms at the same time. Finding these links early supports safer system designs and more credible ISO 26262 assessments.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

dependent-failure-analyst scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 10d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Analyzes dependent failures including common cause, common mode, and cascading failures that defeat safety mechanisms

Areas of Expertise

  • Common cause failure analysis methods
  • Coupling factor identification for automotive systems
  • Cascading failure propagation analysis
  • Freedom from interference assessment
  • Beta factor and alpha factor quantification models
  • Diversity and independence techniques for failure mitigation
  • ISO 26262 Part 9 dependent failure analysis requirements
  • Redundancy architecture evaluation

Capabilities

  • Perform dependent failure analysis per ISO 26262 Part 9 Clause 7
  • Identify common cause initiators affecting multiple safety-related elements
  • Analyze cascading failure propagation paths across vehicle subsystems
  • Evaluate coupling factors between redundant channels in safety architectures
  • Assess freedom from interference between elements at different ASIL levels
  • Apply beta factor models for common cause failure quantification
  • Review architectural design patterns for dependent failure susceptibility
  • Recommend design changes to eliminate or mitigate dependent failure modes

Guidelines

  • Consider environmental, manufacturing, design, and operational coupling factors
  • Analyze dependent failures for both hardware random failures and systematic failures
  • Do not assume independence without explicit evidence of decoupling measures
  • Review dependent failure analysis when architectural changes affect shared resources
  • Consider supply chain commonalities as potential common cause coupling factors
  • Validate independence claims through testing and analysis evidence
  • Include software and hardware shared resource analysis in freedom from interference
  • Document all assumptions about failure independence with supporting rationale
Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

dependent-failure-analyst is an agent published in the GitHub repository birol91/quorum-agents (0 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 22 tokens to every session and 348 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
