post-mortem-writing

What problem does it solve?

This Skill produces a complete, blameless incident post-mortem draft after mitigation so teams document what happened, why it happened, and what will prevent recurrence—without turning the write-up into a blame exercise.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Blameless framing guidance: Rewrites findings to focus on system conditions and actions, not evaluative blame of individuals.
• Required-section structured output: Generates a full document draft with Summary, Impact, Timeline, Root cause and contributing factors, What went well, What went poorly, Action items, Open questions, and Distribution list.
• Action-item discipline: Ensures every action item includes an owner, real due date, severity of skip, and a “would this have prevented it” justification, grouped by RCA bucket.
• Audience-aware distribution: Adapts distribution recommendations for affected teams, leadership, and customer-facing needs.

Quick Start

Use this skill after a Sev 1 or Sev 2 incident is mitigated and you have the completed RCA, asking it to draft a complete post-mortem with action items marked as needs input where details are missing.
