incident-triage-harness

incident-triage-harness is a skill for Cursor from madebyaris/advance-minimax-m3-cursor-rules. It costs 53 tokens per session (859 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A structured guide for investigating software incidents such as outages, alerts, regressions, or suspicious runtime behavior using logs, metrics, code, and visual evidence.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to triage production failures, inspect recent deployments or configuration changes, analyze runtime evidence, apply a small safe mitigation, and verify the result.
Why use it?
It reduces guesswork by connecting the user-visible problem to its cause, limiting the affected area, and checking that a fix works.

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-triage-harness 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 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.

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 Triage Harness

Investigate production-style failures with an evidence-first loop: confirm symptoms, narrow the blast radius, correlate signals, inspect code, and prove the smallest safe mitigation.

When to Use

  • User asks to debug an outage, incident, alert, regression, or mysterious failure
  • Logs, traces, deployments, migrations, config drift, or runtime behavior are involved
  • You need a structured loop for "hypothesis -> check -> narrow -> mitigate -> verify"

For deeper prompts, evidence templates, and mitigation checklists, also read reference.md in this skill directory.


Step 0: Triage The Situation

Before doing anything else, identify:

  1. User-visible symptom: What is broken right now?
  2. Blast radius: Which route, job, service, or user segment is affected?
  3. Recent change surface: Deploys, migrations, feature flags, config changes, dependency bumps
  4. Available evidence: logs, traces, dashboards, DB data, repo history, local repro, tests

Do not jump into code edits until you have at least one concrete failure hypothesis.

Step 0a: Visual Evidence (M3)

When the user attaches a screenshot of a broken UI, a screen recording of the failure, or a short clip of the symptom, the visual is primary evidence — not a supplement.

  • Read the actual file in the current session. Quote the visible text (error message, broken layout, empty state) directly in the report.
  • Name the file path in the closeout; do not describe the image from memory.
  • For a UI regression, treat the screenshot as the "what is broken" input. Treat a re-rendered post-fix frame as the "what is fixed" proof (multimodal-grounded).
  • For animation / interaction bugs, prefer a short clip over a single frame; cite the timestamp region of the relevant behavior.

Step 1: Evidence Loop

Use this sequence:

1. Confirm the symptom
2. Correlate recent changes with the failure window
3. Form the smallest plausible hypothesis
4. Check the hypothesis with the strongest available evidence
5. Narrow the cause before changing code
6. Prefer safe mitigation before broad refactors
7. Verify the mitigation at the affected surface

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.
