Recover from developer disasters. Use when someone force-pushed to main, leaked credentials in git, ran out of disk space, killed the wrong process, corrupted a database, broke a deploy, locked themselves out of SSH, lost commits after a bad rebase, or hit any other "oh no" moment that needs immediate, calm, step-by-step recovery.

From the source SKILL.md

Step-by-step recovery procedures for the worst moments in a developer's day. Every section follows the same pattern: diagnose → fix → verify. Commands are non-destructive by default. Destructive steps are flagged.
