Support Escalation Engineering Review

Use this skill to convert support escalation, engineering triage, bug intake, reproduction, workaround, SLA, and customer-update questions into a concrete artifact with owners, gates, metrics, and recovery paths.

Workflow

1. Identify support channels, issue taxonomy, severity rules, customer segment, reproduction artifacts, logs/traces, owner teams, current queue, SLA promises, and customer communication gaps.
2. Read references/support-escalation-engineering-patterns.md.
3. Classify escalation as how-to, known issue, bug, incident, data repair, billing correction, security/privacy, feature request, product gap, or engineering investigation.
4. Define intake requirements, severity, ownership, triage cadence, reproduction standard, workaround policy, customer update cadence, closure proof, and backlog feedback loop.
5. Produce escalation operating model, state machine, decision table, event schema, triage checklist, and support/engineering RACI.

When not to use

• Do not use for generic advice the base model already handles without this skill's specific artifact contract.
