Damage Control

Overview

Provides recovery protocols for agents that encounter broken state mid-session. Damage control covers four failure classes: agent crashes with partial work on disk, context window overflow that causes state loss, merge conflicts blocking forward progress, and general session state corruption requiring reconciliation.

The skill does not prevent failures. It defines what to do after one has already happened, so recovery is consistent, auditable, and does not silently discard work.

When To Use

An agent process crashed and left files in an unknown state
A session hit the context limit and cannot load prior decisions
git merge or git rebase produced conflicts the agent cannot resolve automatically
Observed state (files on disk, task list, git index) disagrees with expected state
A downstream agent reports missing artifacts that should have been produced upstream

When NOT to Use

Proactive risk assessment before work starts (use Skill(leyline:risk-classification) instead)
