aws-resilience-lifecycle

Guides the end-to-end AWS resilience lifecycle integrating Resilience Hub v2, Fault Injection Service, and Application Recovery Controller. Covers the Define → Test → Operate workflow: from policy creation through failure mode assessment, to FIS experiment validation, to ARC operational controls. Applicable when the user wants a complete resilience strategy, needs to connect findings to experiments to controls, or is planning a resilience program. Also applicable for the meta question of whether marking NGRH findings as resolved is enough, whether they are "done" after resolving findings, or how to validate findings before resolving them. Not applicable for resolving or remediating a specific individual finding (see resilience-hub-failure-mode-assessment), or when a single service is explicitly named (e.g. "what FIS experiment should I run").

Content

85%

Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.

A well-structured, lean orchestration skill with strong workflow sequencing, explicit validation gates, and clean progressive disclosure; its main gap is that executable command specifics live in references rather than inline.

Suggestions

Add one or two copy-paste-ready CLI command pairs (e.g. a minimal policy-create → register-app → start-assessment sequence) inline in the 'Execute the full lifecycle' section so the body is actionable without opening the reference.

Tighten the directional troubleshooting bullets ('Expand blast radius, add multi-fault scenarios') into concrete, named actions or link to a reference recipe.

De-duplicate the 'paper compliance' framing between the 'Validate findings' and 'Findings resolved but no confidence' sections to a single canonical statement with a cross-reference.

DimensionReasoningScore

Conciseness

Lean and operational — assumes Claude knows the services, delegates heavy detail to references, and avoids teaching basics; the minor restatement of 'paper compliance' is deliberate reinforcement of a critical anti-pattern rather than padding.

3 / 3

Actionability

Gives concrete directives (scope IAM roles to needed actions, enforce TLS via aws:SecureTransport, bound blast radius with a stop condition) but defers all executable CLI commands to references and leaves some troubleshooting guidance directional ('Expand blast radius, add multi-fault scenarios').

2 / 3

Workflow Clarity

The Define→Test→Operate sequence is explicit, and the 'validate findings before you resolve them' section provides a hard validation checkpoint ('Run the experiment, confirm the system recovers... then mark resolved') for a consequential operation, with troubleshooting recovery paths.

3 / 3

Progressive Disclosure

Overview body points to three real, one-level-deep references (lifecycle-workflow.md, best-practices.md, api-reference.md) with clearly signaled links and contextual labels; heavy API and workflow content is appropriately split out.

Description

100%

Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.

A strong, specific description that covers concrete actions, natural trigger terms, explicit when-guidance, and clear boundaries against sibling skills, all in third person.

DimensionReasoningScore

Specificity

Lists multiple concrete actions across the lifecycle: 'policy creation through failure mode assessment, to FIS experiment validation, to ARC operational controls' — specific, not vague.

3 / 3

Completeness

Explicitly answers both what (integrated Define→Test→Operate lifecycle across three services) and when ('Applicable when...', 'Also applicable for...', 'Not applicable for...'), with explicit triggers in third person.

3 / 3

Trigger Term Quality

Uses natural domain terms a user would say ('complete resilience strategy', 'planning a resilience program', 'validate findings before resolving them', 'are they done') alongside the real service vocabulary (NGRH, FIS, ARC).

3 / 3

Distinctiveness Conflict Risk

Clear three-service niche with explicit boundary against the sibling skill 'resilience-hub-failure-mode-assessment' and single-service queries, making wrong-skill triggering unlikely.
