This skill should be used when the user asks about "fault tolerance", "resilience", a "circuit breaker", "graceful degradation", "retry storm" or "thundering herd on recovery", "exponential backoff with jitter", "timeout", "bulkhead", a "single point of failure" (SPOF), "failover", or "rate limiting" (token bucket / leaky bucket / sliding window). Use it whenever a design must keep working through node crashes, slow dependencies, traffic spikes, or partial outages — i.e. any time the answer to …

Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

What this skill can do

We found nothing in the files we read that matches our rules. That does not prove the skill is safe: see the limits of static scanning.

Install

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'resilience-failure' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'resilience-failure' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named resilience-failure already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/proyecto26/system-design-skills' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '228d57dc6fa7627a6426553fdd6ad0040e36f361' -- 'skills/resilience-failure' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'skills/resilience-failure' ~/.agents/skills/'resilience-failure' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'resilience-failure' ~/.claude/skills/'resilience-failure' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
