Failure Triage

Category: Engineering  ·  Sub-category: engineering-misc  ·  Last updated:
Use when confronted with an unknown failure in CI or production to rapidly categorize the issue before deep debugging.

From the source SKILL.md

Before diving deep into a stack trace or spending hours reproducing a bug, you must triage it to determine the blast radius, subsystem, and debugging approach.

What this skill does

Failure Triage is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the engineering-misc sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/failure-triage/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.

When to invoke it: Use when confronted with an unknown failure in CI or production to rapidly categorize the issue before deep debugging.

Who uses this skill

The Failure Triage Claude Code skill is built for software engineers, backend developers, full-stack teams, and technical leads building and maintaining production systems. It's part of ClaudSkills (also referred to as Claude Skills or Claude Code Skills) — the open community-curated registry of 69,000+ SKILL.md files for Anthropic's Claude Code agent and the wider Claude ecosystem (Claude API, Claude Agent SDK).
