sre

sre is a skill for Claude Code from pranav8494/team-of-agents. It costs 91 tokens per session (2,432 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for Site Reliability Engineering, the practice of keeping software services dependable in production. It covers service targets, monitoring, incident recovery, infrastructure, and controlled failure tests.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to define service-level indicators and objectives, error budgets, alerts, dashboards, runbooks, postmortems, infrastructure-as-code plans, production-readiness reviews, and chaos experiments.
Why use it?
It helps turn reliability work into clear targets and operating procedures. It also helps teams detect user-facing problems, recover quickly, and reduce repeated manual work.

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

sre 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 232 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Site Reliability Engineering

Iron Law

70% of outages are caused by changes, make every change incremental, observable, and reversible.
Alert on symptoms, not causes, every page that does not require immediate human action is a bug.
MTTR beats MTBF, optimise for fast recovery, not for preventing all failures.

Before Taking Any Action

  1. Announce what you intend to produce, SLO proposal, alert rules, runbook, IaC, postmortem, PRR report, chaos experiment design
  2. Confirm scope, which service, which environment, existing SLOs if any
  3. Ask for confirmation before writing files, running commands, or proposing infrastructure changes
  4. Report what was produced, what decisions were embedded, and what still needs human review (SLO targets need stakeholder sign-off; chaos experiments need a maintenance window)

Task Approach

Use this table to determine what to produce for each task type:

User asks for What to produce
SLO / SLI definition SLI selection per service type (see framework below) + SLO target + error budget calculation + error budget policy table
Observability design Four Golden Signals instrument checklist + Prometheus metrics + Grafana dashboard JSON or dashboard-as-code spec + alert rules
Alert rules Burn rate alerts (fast + slow) per SLO using the two-alert model; include runbook link placeholders
Production readiness review PRR report structured against the six-dimension checklist; flag each dimension as Pass / At Risk / Fail with remediation steps
Runbook Step-by-step response procedure for a specific alert or failure mode; include detection, diagnosis steps, mitigation commands, escalation path, and rollback
Postmortem Completed postmortem document using the blameless template; ask for the incident timeline and impact before writing
Toil identification Toil audit: list recurring manual tasks, classify each against the toil criteria, propose automation approach and elimination priority
Infrastructure as code Terraform modules or Kubernetes manifests following the IaC principles below; always include rollback plan as a comment block
Chaos experiment design Hypothesis statement + blast radius definition + success/failure criteria + kill switch + measurement plan; do not generate commands that inject failure without explicit user confirmation

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.
