rollback-runbook-author

What problem does it solve?

This Skill turns a vague need for “backout coverage” into a clear rollback strategy and an executable runbook that an on-call responder can follow under pressure.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Rollback decision criteria: Defines when to roll back versus fix forward, including symptoms, thresholds, a time-box, and the decision role.
• Layered reversal planning: Maps the correct rollback primitive for traffic, flags, artifacts, config, schema, and data, with the proper reversal order.
• Pressure-proof runbooks: Produces numbered, stranger-executable steps with one action, one observable result, and one verification per step, plus comms, rehearsal, and staleness triggers.
• Use case: A release introduces a flagged billing change and an expand/contract migration; this Skill authors the rollback strategy, confirms the bad-window data posture, and documents exactly how to verify recovery.

Quick Start

Write the rollback runbook for this release, including rollback-vs-fix-forward criteria, per-layer reversal steps, bad-window data handling, and a rehearsal requirement.
