Can it help with on-call burden?

Yes, it emphasizes symptom-based alerting over cause-based alerting, which reduces alert fatigue and ensures that only actionable, urgent issues page an engineer.

What is the SDD integration process for this skill?

During specification and design, it forces the definition of SLOs, operational requirements, and graceful degradation plans, ensuring reliability is built-in rather than bolted on.

What observability metrics does this skill prioritize?

It focuses on the 'four golden signals'—latency, traffic, errors, and saturation—to provide a comprehensive view of system health and user experience.

How does this skill improve deployment safety?

It advocates for progressive rollout strategies such as canary and blue-green deployments, ensuring that changes are validated before full release and can be rolled back automatically if failures occur.

Deployment & DevOps

Applies operational thinking and site reliability engineering practices to CI/CD pipelines, observability, and production deployments.

About

The devops-sre skill equips Claude with the expertise of a seasoned Site Reliability Engineer to ensure systems are stable, scalable, and observable. It guides the design and review of automated CI/CD pipelines, progressive deployment strategies like canary or blue-green releases, and the implementation of robust monitoring using the four golden signals. By focusing on operational excellence, this skill helps teams define meaningful SLOs, manage error budgets, and create actionable alerting systems that reduce on-call fatigue and improve incident response outcomes.
