production-excellence

production-excellence is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from magnus919/agent-skills. It costs 56 tokens per session (2,287 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A decision framework for combining evidence from several production areas before launching a service or change.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to prepare a cross-team launch or operational handoff using evidence about readiness, migrations, recovery, capacity, costs, and past incidents.
Why use it?
It prevents teams from making launch decisions from scattered or incomplete information. It makes conditions, exceptions, escalations, and accountable owners explicit.

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

production-excellence 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 9d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 175 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Production Excellence

A thin composition bundle that assembles cross-domain production evidence into a defensible launch or operational decision. It owns the acceptance and handoff layer — the gate model that reads evidence from specialist skills and produces go / no-go / defer / exception / escalation outcomes with accountable owners. It does not own any specialist's runbook.

When to load this

Load when:

  • A service or change is approaching a launch decision and evidence from multiple production domains must be assembled.
  • You need a structured gate model (go/no-go/defer/exception/escalation) with conditions, evidence, and accountable owners.
  • Cross-domain evidence (readiness, migration, recovery, capacity/cost, incident history) must be combined into one operational handoff record.
  • A launch or change needs a post-launch learning path routed to incident-learning and product-lifecycle-learning.
  • You are coordinating a production change across SRE, release, platform, security, data, and QA specialists and need a single acceptance contract.

When not to use

Do not load this bundle for:

  • Incident command or SLO operations — those are owned by site-reliability-engineering.
  • Release-pipeline mechanics, versioning, or deployment strategies — those are owned by release-engineering.
  • Platform architecture or internal-developer-platform design — those are owned by platform-engineering.
  • Threat modeling, security review procedure, or vulnerability assessment — those are owned by secure-software-engineering.
  • Data-pipeline design, ETL, or storage architecture — those are owned by data-engineering.
  • Test-strategy design, regression-suite management, or test-automation framework design — those are owned by qa-methodology.
  • A generic checklist detached from service ownership, risk, evidence, and verification — every gate in this bundle requires a named service owner, assessed risk, verified evidence, and a declaration of the verification boundary. A bare checklist is never a valid outcome.

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.
