The instructions your model reads when the skill loads.
Standard recovery patterns for all squad agents. When something fails, adapt — don't just report the failure.
When: Transient failures — API timeouts, rate limits, network errors, temporary service unavailability.
Pattern:
Example: API call returns 429 Too Many Requests → wait 2s → retry → wait 4s → retry → wait 8s → retry → escalate if still failing.
When: Primary tool or approach fails and an alternative exists.
Pattern:
Example: Primary CLI tool fails → fall back to direct API call for the same operation.
When: Build failures, test failures, linting errors — structured errors with actionable output.
Pattern:
test cases passed, vs 11 / 22 without
