A methodology for systematically designing escalation tiers and defining SLAs.

  • Escalation design
  • SKILL.md covers Target Agents, 3-Tier Escalation Structure, Issue Severity Classification and Escalation Trigger Conditions, plus 3 more sections
  • Calls black
  • Issue severity classification

What it does

Escalation Flowchart is an agent skill from revfactory/harness-100. A methodology for systematically designing escalation tiers and defining SLAs. Use this skill for 'escalation design', 'SLA definition', 'issue severity classification', 'crisis response protocol', 'support routing', and other escalation system design needs. However, CRM system configuration and call center routing implementation are outside the scope of this skill.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.3k 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 Sales & Support, covering Diagrams. The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Escalation design
  • Issue severity classification
  • Crisis response protocol
  • Support routing

Example prompts

  • “escalation design”
  • “SLA definition”
  • “issue severity classification”
  • “/escalation-flowchart”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 8e8d35c. 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:

    • black

    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

Escalation Flowchart loads about 1.3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 97 tokens; SKILL.md has 147 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~97
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.3k

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.
