Service Catalog Entry Skill

Produce a complete service catalog entry for a microservice or internal platform service — giving any engineer at the company the context they need to understand what the service does, how to depend on it, what its reliability characteristics are, and where to go when something goes wrong. A well-written catalog entry eliminates "who owns this?" and "is this safe to use?" questions that slow down teams depending on shared services.

Required Inputs

Ask for these if not already provided:

• Service name — the canonical identifier used in code, monitoring, and deployments
• Team and owner — team name, tech lead name, and on-call contact
• Architecture overview — what the service does, what calls it, and what it calls
• SLA requirements — availability target, latency SLO, support tier, and maintenance window
• Key APIs — the most important endpoints other teams use (method, path, brief description)
• Data handled — what data the service stores or processes, sensitivity classification, retention

Output Format

Service Catalog: [Service Name]
