postmortem

A command that writes a blameless postmortem in Markdown in your project. A postmortem records what happened, why it happened, and how a team can learn from an incident without blaming individuals.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to document outages, failures, or other incidents. It can produce HTML or PDF only when you specifically ask for a designed format.
Why use it?
It gives the team a consistent way to capture incidents and their lessons in the repository.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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

postmortem 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 yesterday.

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.

Origin

This is a copy

84% identical to adr — 6 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

What it actually says

Use the writing-documents skill. Type slug: postmortem Load references/type-postmortem.md, references/writing.md, references/evidence.md. Default output is Markdown in the user's project at this type's conventional path. Do not assemble HTML, pick a theme, inline CSS, or run build_document.py unless the user asked for HTML, PDF, print, or designed output. If they did, also load references/output.md and core/.

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.
