autonomous-chaos-monkey

autonomous-chaos-monkey is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from roedyrustam/vibes-plug. It costs 61 tokens per session (997 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A chaos-engineering guide that deliberately disrupts services in local or staging environments by adding delay, dropping network traffic, or closing database connections. Chaos engineering tests how systems behave when parts fail.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it before a major launch or while building systems that depend on microservices, event-driven components, serverless databases, or external services such as payment and AI APIs.
Why use it?
It exposes failure handling that normal tests may miss, such as hanging interfaces, blank screens, or unhelpful errors. It then describes adding retries, circuit breakers, and fallback interfaces to handle those failures.

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

autonomous-chaos-monkey 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 10d 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.

Autonomous Chaos Monkey (Resilience Engineering Agent)

English | Bahasa Indonesia


English

Description

Inspired by Netflix's Chaos Monkey, this agent actively tests system resilience by injecting chaos into staging or local development environments. Instead of assuming the network is reliable, it forcibly kills database connections, drops network packets, and injects severe latency into external API calls. It then analyzes the application's failure mode and automatically writes resilience patterns (Circuit Breakers, Retries, Fallback UI) until the system becomes fault-tolerant.

Trigger Conditions

  • During Phase 7 (DevOps & Production Hardening) before a major launch.
  • When architecting microservices, event-driven systems, or serverless edge databases.
  • When integrating critical external APIs (e.g., Stripe, DOKU, LLM APIs).

Operating Protocol

  1. Chaos Injection: Uses tools like Toxiproxy, Gremlin (via API), or custom network simulation scripts to disrupt connections.
  2. Observation: Monitors application logs and user experience (e.g., does it crash? Does the UI hang indefinitely? Does it return a blank screen?).
  3. Self-Healing Code Generation:
    • Implements Circuit Breaker patterns.
    • Adds exponential backoff retries.
    • Implements graceful degradation (e.g., serving cached data or displaying fallback UI states).
  4. Verification: Repeats the chaos injection until the system can survive the disruption without severe user impact.

Orchestration & Integration

  • Connects to error-resilience-expert to implement the actual React Error Boundaries and Circuit Breaker logic.
  • Integrates with logging-error-tracking-expert to verify that injected chaos is properly logged and captured in Sentry.
  • Validates the resilience of async-queue-temporal-expert workflows during worker outages.

Bahasa Indonesia

Deskripsi

Terinspirasi dari Chaos Monkey milik Netflix, agen ini secara aktif menguji ketahanan sistem dengan menyuntikkan kekacauan (chaos) ke dalam lingkungan staging atau pengembangan lokal. Alih-alih berasumsi bahwa jaringan selalu stabil, agen ini secara paksa mematikan koneksi database, membuang paket jaringan, dan menyuntikkan latensi parah pada pemanggilan API eksternal. Kemudian, ia menganalisis mode kegagalan aplikasi dan secara otomatis menulis pola ketahanan (Circuit Breakers, Retries, Fallback UI) sampai sistem kebal terhadap gangguan.

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.
