AI Production Failure Reconstructor
Example session with this skill installed
Our checkout API started returning intermittent 500 errors after yesterday's deployment.
Here is what I have
Error logs from the affected requests
Deployment timestamp
Git diff from the last release
One successful request
One failed request
API response traces
Reconstruct what happened, identify the most likely trigger, and tell me how to reproduce the failure.
- Read your context and instructions
- Compiled the ai production failure
PRODUCTION FAILURE RECONSTRUCTION
INCIDENT
Intermittent checkout API 500 errors after deployment.
FAILURE TIMELINE
14:02 — New deployment completed
14:07 — First failed checkout request
14:09 — Successful checkout from another session
14:13 — Repeated failures begin under the same request condition
STRONGEST EVIDENCE
The failing requests contain a missing payment-session field that was not present in successful requests.
LIKELY TRIGGER
A new checkout path introduced in the latest deployment appears to access the payment-session value before it is initialized.
CONFIDENCE
Medium — strong correlation exists, but the causal path requires reproduction.
REPRODUCTION CONDITIONS
• New checkout session
• Payment method selected
• Specific session state
• New application version
• Payment-session initialization delayed
NEXT TEST
Replay the failing request sequence against the new build while logging payment-session initialization.
EXPECTED RESULT
If the hypothesis is correct, the 500 error should occur when the payment-session value is accessed before initialization.
REGRESSION TEST
Add a checkout test covering the delayed-session initialization state.`

About this skill
AI Production Failure Reconstructor is an evidence-first incident analysis skill for developers and engineering teams dealing with confusing production failures.
Instead of immediately guessing a fix, it reconstructs the failure as a timeline and connects symptoms to deployments, code changes, requests, errors, environment conditions, and user actions.
Core workflow
Failure Timeline
- Build a chronological sequence of events
- Align logs, errors, deployments, requests, and user actions
- Identify the first meaningful deviation
Trigger Detection
- Find conditions that may have triggered the failure
- Compare successful vs failed scenarios
- Separate correlation from stronger evidence
Change Correlation
- Compare recent deploys and code changes
- Identify suspicious configuration or dependency changes
- Map changes to affected behavior
Reproduction Model
- Convert production evidence into reproducible conditions
- Define required inputs, environment, timing, state, and sequence
- Handle intermittent and race-condition scenarios
Evidence Map
- Separate confirmed facts from hypotheses
- Rank evidence by confidence
- Identify missing evidence needed to confirm the theory
Verification Plan
- Define the smallest useful test
- Create regression scenarios
- Specify what evidence should appear if the hypothesis is correct
Output
- Failure timeline
- Trigger hypothesis
- Evidence map
- Suspected change correlation
- Reproduction conditions
- Confidence level
- Missing-evidence checklist
- Verification test plan
- Developer-ready incident handoff
Perfect for
- Production incidents
- Intermittent failures
- “Works locally” bugs
- Post-deployment failures
- Authentication failures
- API errors
- Database inconsistencies
- Race conditions
- Configuration-related failures
- Performance regressions
Important
This skill does not pretend that a root cause is proven when evidence is incomplete. It clearly separates confirmed evidence, strong hypotheses, weak hypotheses, and unknowns.`

- Cannot prove a root cause when the available evidence is incomplete
Production-only failures may require real logs, metrics, traces, or staging reproduction
Race conditions and distributed-system failures may require repeated testing
Sensitive production data should be redacted before analysis
Final deployment and production changes should remain under human review`
