alerting-doctrine

alerting-doctrine is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from event4u-app/agent-config. It costs 47 tokens per session (2,126 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A provider-independent guide for deciding which alerts should wake someone, create a later task, or merely provide information. It also defines the owner, instructions, and first diagnostic step an alert needs.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when classifying alerts, reviewing an alert set, or deciding whether a condition belongs on a page, in an action queue, or in informational logs and dashboards.
Why use it?
Without clear response rules, people may be paged for harmless information or miss conditions that need immediate action. The guide ties each alert to the response it requires.

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

alerting-doctrine 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.

When to use

Use when classifying an alert, reviewing an alert set, or deciding whether a condition should wake a human. Provider-neutral: the classes below hold whichever tool evaluates the rule.

Do NOT use when:

  • Establishing which signals exist at all (use logging-monitoring first — you cannot alert on a signal the project does not have)
  • Adjudicating a go/no-go verdict (use operational-readiness)
  • Running an incident once it has started (use incident-commander)
  • Building the dashboard the alert links to (use dashboard-design, grafana)

The three classes

Every alert is exactly one of these. The class is decided by what the recipient must do, never by how alarming the condition sounds.

Class Condition that earns it Destination Latency of response
page A human must act now or the damage grows Wakes a named human Minutes
action A human must act, but the next working day is soon enough Ticket or queue Hours to days
info Nobody must act; it is context for when something else fires Log, channel, dashboard Never

What earns a page — all three, as a condition rather than a preference:

  1. User-visible or irreversible. Users are affected now, or damage accumulates while nobody looks (data loss, budget burn, a queue filling toward a ceiling).
  2. Actionable now. A named human can do something about it at 3am. "The upstream provider is down" is not actionable unless failover is manual.
  3. Not self-clearing. A condition that resolves itself before a human can log in is an info with a trend, not a page.

Fail any one → it is action or info.

What a misclassification costs. Too eager: alert fatigue, and the page that mattered arrives in a stream of pages that did not. Fatigue is not an inconvenience — it is the mechanism by which a real outage is missed, and it is caused by pages that were never actionable. Too shy: the condition sits in a channel nobody reads until a user reports it. The asymmetry is real but bounded in both directions, which is why the three conditions above are stated as a test and not as taste.

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.
