backup-disaster-recovery

backup-disaster-recovery is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from GoldenWing-360/claude-security-skills. It costs 83 tokens per session (3,254 once invoked), scanned C, original, MIT.

A guide for planning backups and disaster recovery, the process of restoring systems after data loss or a major failure.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps define recovery targets, protect backups from ransomware, choose retention rules, and run restore tests.
Why use it?
It addresses the gap between having backup files and knowing that the full system can actually be restored in time.

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 C, and why

backup-disaster-recovery scanned grade C with 2 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 12d 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.

rm -rf with a variable or a broad path is one typo away from removing the wrong tree.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 266 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Backups & Disaster Recovery

The line that defines a backup strategy: "a backup you have not restored is a wish, not a backup." Most teams have something called "backups" that have never been restored end-to-end. Sometimes they don't actually work; sometimes they work but are too slow; sometimes they work but the team forgot a critical piece of state and ends up with a half-restored system.

This skill builds a strategy that survives the first real incident — not the strategy that looks good in a slide deck.

Pairs with incident-response (where backups get used) and postgres-hardening / backend-architecture (where the data lives).

When to invoke

  • "We have backups but nobody has ever restored them"
  • Adding a new system that holds production data
  • After a near-miss (almost lost data) or an actual data-loss incident
  • Before a major migration, version upgrade, or refactor that touches storage
  • Ransomware attack in the news that affects your stack (always periodic, treat as a prompt)
  • Periodic re-audit (quarterly is reasonable)

Step 1 — Define what you're protecting against

The right strategy depends on the failure class. Backups for ransomware look different from backups for "developer dropped the table accidentally."

Failure class What you need
Hardware failure (disk, server) Replica or snapshot in a different physical location
Accidental delete (DROP TABLE, rm -rf, bad migration) Point-in-time backup, retained N days
Application bug corrupting data Point-in-time backup + ability to surgically restore subsets
Ransomware encrypting everything reachable from the app Backups the ransomware cannot reach — immutable or offline
Cloud-account compromise Backups in a separate account / provider, separate credentials
Provider going under / region outage Backups in a different provider / region
Legal hold / subpoena / SAR request Selective archive, retention policy that complies with your jurisdiction
Force majeure (data center fire, country-level outage) Off-region / off-provider backups, restore plan that does not assume continuity

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.
