resilience-analysis

Assess error handling, isolation boundaries, and recovery mechanisms in agent frameworks. Use when (1) tracing error propagation paths, (2) evaluating sandboxing for code execution, (3) understanding retry and fallback mechanisms, (4) assessing production readiness, or (5) identifying failure modes and recovery patterns.

Why this skill is useful

Provides detailed patterns and templates for error handling and recovery mechanisms that the AI wouldn't reliably generate on its own.

What this skill does

Resilience Analysis Assesses error handling and isolation boundaries. Process 1. Trace error propagation — Map exception flow from tools to agent 2. Identify isolation — Sandbox mechanisms for dangerous operations 3. Catalog recovery — Retry logic, fallbacks, circuit breakers 4. Assess boundaries — What crashes propagate vs. are contained Error Propagation Analysis Questions to Answer 1. Does a tool exception terminate the agent? 2. Are LLM API errors retried automatically? 3. Is parsing failure (malformed output) recoverable? 4. What happens when state updates fail?
