system-design-resilience-ops

system-design-resilience-ops is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from HoangNguyen0403/agent-skills-standard. It costs 60 tokens per session (810 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A system-resilience and operations review skill for designing how software keeps running when components fail and how changes are deployed safely.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to choose failover across availability zones or regions, define recovery targets, limit failure impact, set readiness signals, and plan deployment and rollback steps.
Why use it?
It exposes single points of failure and forces decisions about recovery time, acceptable data loss, monitoring, and rollback before an outage or bad release occurs.

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

system-design-resilience-ops 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 13d 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 74 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Resilience and Operations

Priority: P1 (HIGH)

A design is not done until its failure and its rollout are designed.

SPOF Elimination

  • Walk every component and ask what happens when exactly one instance dies, then when the whole zone dies.
  • Any component with one instance, one writer, or one shared config plane is a single point of failure. Name it or remove it.
  • Redundancy only helps when failure modes are independent: shared credentials, shared config, and a shared control plane cancel the benefit.
  • Blast radius: state which users or flows are affected per component failure, and cap it with cells, bulkheads, or per-tenant quotas.

Failover and Recovery

Topology Recovery time Cost Fits
Single region, multi-AZ Minutes, automatic Low Most products
Active-passive across regions Minutes to hours, drill-dependent Medium Regulated or high-value flows
Active-active across regions Seconds High Global low-latency, conflict-tolerant data
  • Set RPO (tolerable data loss) and RTO (tolerable downtime) as numbers before choosing a topology; the numbers pick the topology, not the reverse.
  • Untested failover is a hypothesis. Schedule a drill and record the measured RTO against the target.
  • Backups need a restore test. A backup that has never been restored is not a backup.

Observability

  • Instrument the four signals per service: traffic, error rate, latency percentiles, saturation.
  • Alert on user-visible symptoms and on error-budget burn rate, not on raw CPU.
  • Propagate a trace and correlation id across every hop, including queue messages.
  • Every alert needs an owner, a runbook link, and a defined next action; an alert nobody acts on is noise.

Rollout

Strategy Blast radius Rollback Cost
Rolling Grows during the roll Roll forward or back, slow Low
Blue-green Full switch at cutover Instant switch back Double capacity
Canary Small cohort first Stop and drain the cohort Needs routing plus metrics
Feature flag Per user or tenant Instant, no redeploy Flag lifecycle debt

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.
