Sample Output
A real example of what this skill produces.
DORA METRICS REPORT ════════════════════════════════════════ Team: 3-person startup Period: Current (self-reported estimate) Overall Tier: MEDIUM ════════════════════════════════════════
METRIC BREAKDOWN ────────────────────────────────────────────────────── Metric Current Tier vs. Elite Deployment Frequency 2–3×/week HIGH Elite = multiple/day Lead Time for Changes ~3 days HIGH Elite = < 1 hour Change Failure Rate ~25% MEDIUM Elite = 0–15% Mean Time to Restore 3–4 hours HIGH Elite = < 1 hour ──────────────────────────────────────────────────────
BOTTLENECK: Change Failure Rate — at 25%, roughly 1 in 4 deployments causes a production incident. This is dragging the overall tier to MEDIUM and inflating MTTR. Until failure rate drops, increasing deployment frequency will only multiply incidents.
IMPROVEMENT ROADMAP ────────────────────────────────────────────────────── Priority 1: Change Failure Rate (MEDIUM → HIGH) Current: ~25% Target: < 15% (moves from MEDIUM to HIGH/Elite boundary) [... abbreviated ...]

About This Skill
Measure and Accelerate Software Delivery Performance
The DORA Metrics Reviewer is a specialized diagnostic skill designed for engineering leads and DevOps practitioners. Based on the industry-standard DevOps Research and Assessment (DORA) framework, it transforms raw team data into a strategic 90-day execution plan.
What it does
This skill goes beyond simple calculation. It benchmarks your team across the four key metrics: Deployment Frequency, Lead Time for Changes, Change Failure Rate, and Mean Time to Restore (MTTR). It identifies your delivery tier (Elite, High, Medium, or Low) based on the latest research and provides:
- Bottleneck Identification: Pinpoints the specific metric acting as a "binding constraint" on your team's velocity.
- Outlier Analysis: Explains how a single low-performing metric impacts your overall delivery stability.
- Actionable Roadmaps: Generates concrete, technical tasks—like implementing feature flags or trunk-based development—to move you to the next performance tier.
Why use this skill?
Prompting a generic AI for DevOps advice often leads to vague suggestions like "communicate better." This skill enforces high-leverage engineering practices and follows a strict hierarchical logic: for example, prioritizing Lead Time to unlock Deployment Frequency. The output follows a professional, standardized report format ready for stakeholder review.

Use Cases
- Identify the primary constraint holding back your software delivery speed.
- Classify team performance into Elite, High, Medium, or Low DORA tiers.
- Generate a prioritized 90-day action plan to reduce Change Failure Rate.
- Establish a baseline for Mean Time to Restore (MTTR) with specific runbooks.
- Review my DORA metrics
- Benchmark our deployment frequency and lead time
- Why is our change failure rate so high?
Known Limitations
Team has no metrics instrumented (estimating from memory):: **Serverless or event-driven architecture (e.g., AWS Lambda):** Deployment Frequency and Lead Time apply normally.
