SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

When a PR crisis hits — a viral complaint, a misleading post, a coordinated brand attack, or a legal exposure — teams often react too slowly, respond emotionally, or say the wrong thing publicly. This Skill provides a structured playbook so the response is classified, approved, and executed within defined time windows.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • L1-L5 Severity Classification: Sorts incidents into operational, content, reputation, brand-attack, and legal/compliance levels, each with a defined response window from immediate to 4 hours.
  • Hour-by-Hour Response Plan: Produces a Markdown output covering initial assessment, a 0-1h/1-4h/4-24h/day 2-7 action timeline, approved messaging, internal task owners, and sentiment monitoring.
  • Escalation Matrix and Do-Not-Do List: Defines who handles each level, who must be informed, and hard rules such as never deleting legitimate negative comments or making public legal statements before counsel review.
  • Use Case: A customer complaint thread starts going viral on social media. Use this Skill to classify it as L3, generate the first-four-hours plan with a holding statement, route approval to the leader, and schedule sentiment checks at 24 hours and 7 days.

Quick Start

Use the crisis playbook skill to assess this viral complaint thread and produce a severity classification with an hour-by-hour response plan and holding statement.

FAQPage Schema
How do I respond to a PR crisis on social media?

Classify the incident first using the L1-L5 severity table, then follow the response window for that level. Verify facts before responding, never stay silent past 4 hours on a spreading crisis, and have a leader approve any public statement at L2 or above.

What should a crisis response plan include?

A crisis response plan should include an initial assessment with severity classification, an hour-by-hour action timeline with owners, approved and prohibited messaging, a single designated spokesperson, internal task assignments, and sentiment monitoring at 24 hours and 7 days.

When should a brand crisis be escalated to legal counsel?

Escalate immediately at L5, which covers deceptive-advertising claims, undisclosed endorsements, personal data breaches, IP infringement, and platform enforcement actions. Regulated categories like health, finance, insurance, credit, and crypto route any claim challenge straight to legal review.

Should I delete negative comments during a brand crisis?

No, deleting legitimate negative comments escalates the situation and is on the do-not-do list. Only clear spam and hate speech should be removed. Archive all evidence with timestamps before taking down any of your own affected content.

What is the difference between social listening and a crisis playbook?

Social listening handles early detection and ongoing sentiment monitoring before anything escalates, while the crisis playbook activates once an incident is already spreading. Use social listening for prevention and the playbook for structured response and post-mortem.
