Kubernetes Network Root Cause Analysis
kubeshark/kubeshark
Investigates past Kubernetes incidents from Kubeshark traffic snapshots: takes captures, dissects API calls, extracts PCAPs and compares traffic over time.
Decide whether an issue gets escalated now, held with a re-check time, or closed — as a typed decision with probabilities rather than a judgment call in a thread.

What it does
Escalate Or Hold is an agent skill from mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills. Decide whether an issue gets escalated now, held with a re-check time, or closed — as a typed decision with probabilities rather than a judgment call in a thread. Use when asked should I escalate this, is this a P1, do we page someone, hold or escalate, or when an on-call, support lead or PM is staring at an issue and unsure. Produces the issue state in a fixed schema, the three-way decision with probabilities and confidence, the act-or-hold verdict, and the re-check time when holding.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in DevOps & Cloud, covering Incident response. The repository describes itself as: 1255 professional Agent Skills for Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Cursor & Codex — PRDs, postmortems, leases, medical bills, layoffs, go-bags, new countries. Plain markdown, MIT, in… The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- Asked should I escalate this
- Do we page someone
- PM is staring at an issue and unsure
Example prompts
- “/escalate-or-hold”
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 1cbf1f0. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
node
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Escalate Or Hold loads about 1.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 127 tokens; SKILL.md has 578 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Escalate or Hold
Most escalation mistakes are timing mistakes: too late because nobody wanted to be the one who paged, or too early because the reporter shouted. This skill fixes the shape of the decision — six state fields, three defined options, a probability for each — so the call is made on impact and trend rather than on volume.
Where this sits
Before cs-escalation-brief (which writes the brief once you have decided to escalate) and alongside escalation-tree (which says to whom). This one says whether, and when.
What This Skill Produces
- The issue state — six fields, filled from evidence
- The decision —
escalate/hold/closewith probabilities and confidence - Act or hold — thresholds applied, verdict stated
- The re-check time — when holding, a hard time (hours, not days) and what would trigger escalation before it
- The reporter line — one sentence to send the person who raised it
Required Inputs
Ask for these if not provided:
- issue — what happened, when first reported, current status
- impact — customers or revenue affected, SLA state, any regulatory or safety angle
- owner — who has it, their capacity, when they last updated
- trend — worse, stable, or improving, with the evidence
- prior_escalations — escalated before? what happened
- asks — what the reporter is asking for
Framework: A Typed Decision
| Option | It applies when |
|---|---|
escalate | Impact is growing, or a commitment / SLA / safety line is crossed, and the current owner cannot fix it in time — bring in the next level now |
hold | Impact is bounded, the owner has a credible plan and a next update time — hold and re-check at that time |
close | Resolved, a duplicate, or impact was misjudged — close with a note to the reporter |
Thresholds. Act when confidence ≥ 0.6 and the winning option's probability ≥ 0.7. When escalate and hold are close, hold with a hard re-check time and tell the reporter the time — a close call resolved by a clock beats a close call resolved by a mood.
Trend beats severity. A bounded sev-2 that is getting worse is closer to escalation than a static sev-1 with a tested fix landing in an hour.
Getting probabilities. Any calibrated decision model that returns a probability per defined option serves this contract; the repo ships an adapter (node integrations/jev/decide.mjs escalate-or-hold --state state.json, contract in integrations/jev/decisions/). Without one, the assistant estimates and labels the estimate.

Confidence: 0.xx · Source: [model / estimate]
Verdict: [act: option] or [hold — re-check at HH:MM; escalate before that if: …] Reporter line: "[one sentence: what is happening and when they will hear next]"
Quality Checks
- Trend is stated with evidence, not assumed from severity
- All three probabilities shown; the verdict cites the thresholds
- A hold has a re-check time in hours and a named early trigger
- The reporter gets one sentence with a time in it
- Safety or regulatory angles, if present, are stated explicitly and force
escalate
Anti-Patterns
- Escalating the loudest reporter rather than the largest impact
- Holding without a clock — "let's see how it goes" is not a hold, it is a drift
- Closing to reduce the queue when impact was never verified
- Re-litigating the options — inventing "soft escalate" to avoid paging someone
- Skipping the reporter line — silence is how holds turn into escalations from above
Example Trigger Phrases
- "Should I escalate this or wait for the owner's fix?"
- "Is this a page-someone situation?"
- "Third ticket on this today — hold or escalate?"
