incident-hotfix

incident-hotfix is a skill for Codex from HoangNguyen0403/agent-skills-standard. It costs 27 tokens per session (780 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An incident-response workflow for reducing harm from a production incident or urgent regression, followed by root-cause remediation and a postmortem.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to assess severity and impact, apply and verify a mitigation, monitor recovery, record evidence, and hand the stabilized issue to remediation.
Why use it?
It prioritizes restoring service through rollback, feature-flag changes, or configuration reverts before investigating the underlying cause.

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

incident-hotfix 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 28d 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.

Incident Hotfix Skill

[!IMPORTANT] Mitigate a production incident or urgent regression first, then route to root-cause remediation and a postmortem.

Optional args: slug=, ticket=<id/url>, mode=interactive|autonomous|channel, channel=, auto_continue=true|false, profile=business|hybrid|technical.

Instructions

When the user asks to perform this workflow, execute the following steps:

Incident Hotfix Workflow

Goal: Stop user-facing harm immediately, then hand off to root-cause discipline instead of debugging live.

Steps

  1. Triage:
    • Severity, blast radius, affected environments/markets, and whether the regression is a rollback candidate.
    • Load deploy-release rollback path and prior deployment report if present.
  2. Mitigate first:
    • Prefer rollback, feature flag disable, or config revert over a live code fix.
    • Confirm mitigation stopped user-facing harm before investigating root cause.
    • Do not attempt a root-cause code fix under live production pressure.
  3. Stabilize:
    • Monitor logs, metrics, errors, and core user flows until signals return to baseline.
    • Record mitigation timestamp, owner, and evidence.
  4. Route to remediation:
    • Once stable, hand off to dev-fix for root-cause debugging under the normal Propose -> Approve -> Verify cycle.
    • Do not skip dev-fix's root-cause-before-code requirement just because mitigation already shipped.
  5. Route to learning:
    • After verify-work confirms the permanent fix, route to retro-learn for a postmortem.
    • The confirmed root cause becomes a permanent eval case in the skill or workflow that should have prevented it.

Runtime Contract

  • Use only for production incidents or urgent regressions with active user-facing harm; non-urgent bugs go directly to dev-fix.
  • Required inputs: incident signal (alert, report, or error spike) plus a mitigation path (rollback, flag, or config revert).
  • Return BLOCKED only when no mitigation path exists and the incident cannot be safely stopped.

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.
