Human-factors root cause analysis for incidents involving operators, crews, clinicians, or any human actors. Covers James Reason's Swiss Cheese Model and active/latent failure taxonomy, HFACS (Human Factors Analysis and Classification System), Just Culture algorithm (Marx/GAIN), Crew Resource Management (CRM) findings, and high-reliability organization (HRO) principles. Use when investigating incidents in aviation, healthcare, nuclear operations, emergency response, or any context where "operator error" is a tempting but shallow explanation and the real question is what organizational and design factors made the error foreseeable.

From the source SKILL.md

"The root cause was human error" is almost never a useful investigation finding. It stops the inquiry exactly where it should begin. This skill teaches the frameworks that treat human performance as a window into the system that produced it — so you end up redesigning the system rather than retraining the operator.
