sre-engineer
SRE / Observability Engineer (/sre) — reliability engineering: SLOs/SLIs & error budgets, monitoring & alerting (Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry), incident response & runbooks, on-call, capacity & load, chaos/resilience, and post-incident reviews. Use when defining reliability targets, instrumenting observability, setting up alerting, writing runbooks, doing incident response, or reviewing a change for production readiness. Invoke alongside /arch for reliability NFRs and devops-engineer for the underlying infra/CI-CD. NOT for provisioning infra or pipelines (that's devops-engineer) — /sre owns reliability, not the cluster.
What this skill does
# SRE / Observability Engineer (/sre) **Command:** `/sre` · **Category:** Operations ## Gate Check (workflow) Consult the **`workflow-engine`** skill first. `/sre` owns **`RELIABILITY_OK`** (`soft`). - **Trigger:** production deploys, new services, or SLO-bearing changes. - **On pass:** confirm SLIs/SLOs defined, dashboards + alerts exist, runbook present, rollback path tested → record `RELIABILITY_OK`. If requirements are unmet, follow the **soft-gate policy** — warn and record the skip + reason. To make reliability *blocking*, set the `RELIABILITY_OK` gate's `refusal: hard` under the `gates:` mapping in `workflow.yaml` (and add it to a preset's `always_required` if it should always apply) — refusal is a property of the gate itself, not the preset. - Also contributes reliability **NFRs** during `/arch`. ## When to use (and when not) - **Use for:** SLO/SLI design & error budgets, observability instrumentation (metrics/logs/traces), alerting & on-call, incident command & runbooks, capacity/load testing, resilience (timeouts, retries, circuit breakers, chaos), post-incident reviews. - **Hand off instead when:** provisioning/IaC, CI/CD pipelines, K8s setup → **devops-engineer**; raw latency profiling of a hot path → **Performance Engineer**; security hardening → **/secops**. ## Core expertise - **SLOs:** SLIs, targets, error budgets, burn-rate alerts; the four golden signals. - **Observability:** OpenTelemetry, Prometheus, Grafana, structured logging, distributed tracing, RED/USE methods. - **Incident response:** severity model, incident command, comms, runbooks, blameless postmortems, action items. - **Resilience:** timeouts, retries with backoff+jitter, circuit breakers, bulkheads, graceful degradation, chaos testing. - **Capacity:** load testing (k6, Gatling), headroom, autoscaling signals. ## Standards - Every production service has an **SLO, dashboards, alerts, and a runbook** before it's "reliability-OK." - Alerts are **symptom-based and actionable** (page on user-facing impact, not on every metric). - Postmortems are **blameless** and produce tracked action items.

appbuilder-action-scaffolder
IncludedCreate, implement, deploy, and debug Adobe Runtime actions with consistent layout, validation, and error handling. Use this skill whenever the user needs to add actions to an App Builder project, understand action structure (params, response format, web/raw actions), configure actions in the manifest, use App Builder SDKs (State, Files, Events, database), deploy and invoke actions via CLI, debug action issues, or implement patterns such as webhook receivers, custom event providers, journaling consumers, large payload redirects, action sequence pipelines, and Asset Compute workers. Also trigger when users mention serverless functions in Adobe context, action logging, IMS authentication for actions, or cron-style scheduled actions.
orchestrating-datacloud
IncludedSalesforce Data Cloud product orchestrator for connect→prepare→harmonize→segment→act workflows. Use this skill when the user needs a multi-step Data Cloud pipeline, cross-phase troubleshooting, or data space and data kit management. TRIGGER when: user needs a multi-step Data Cloud pipeline, asks to set up or troubleshoot Data Cloud across phases, manages data spaces or data kits, or wants a cross-phase sf data360 workflow. DO NOT TRIGGER when: work is isolated to a single phase (use the matching phase-specific skill), the task is STDM/session tracing/parquet telemetry (use observing-agentforce), standard CRM SOQL (use querying-soql), or Apex implementation (use generating-apex).

sf-datacloud
IncludedSalesforce Data Cloud product orchestrator for connect→prepare→harmonize→segment→act workflows. TRIGGER when: user needs a multi-step Data Cloud pipeline, asks to set up or troubleshoot Data Cloud across phases, manages data spaces or data kits, or wants a cross-phase `sf data360` workflow. DO NOT TRIGGER when: work is isolated to a single phase (use the matching sf-datacloud-* skill), the task is STDM/session tracing/parquet telemetry (use sf-ai-agentforce-observability), standard CRM SOQL (use sf-soql), or Apex implementation (use sf-apex).
fabric-cli
IncludedUse this skill for Fabric.so CLI workflows with the `fabric` terminal command: diagnose/install/login, search or browse a Fabric library, save notes/links/files, create folders, ask the Fabric AI assistant, manage tasks/workspaces, generate shell completion, check subscription usage, produce JSON output, and use Fabric as persistent agent memory. Do not use for Microsoft Fabric/Azure/Power BI `fab`, Daniel Miessler's Fabric framework, Python Fabric SSH, Fabric.js, or textile/fashion fabric.
lark
IncludedLark/Feishu CLI skills: lark-cli operations for docs, markdown, sheets, base, calendar, im, mail, task, okr, drive, wiki, slides, whiteboard, apps, approval, attendance, contact, vc, minutes, event. Use when the user needs to operate Lark/Feishu resources via lark-cli, send messages, manage documents, spreadsheets, calendars, tasks, OKRs, deploy web pages, or any Feishu/Lark workspace operations.
