# Delx Ops Guardian

Use this skill when handling incidents, degraded automations, or gateway/memory instability in production.

Aliases

Scope (strict)

This skill is **runbook-only** and must operate under least privilege.

Allowed read sources:

Allowed remediation actions (safe set):

1. Retry a failed job once when failure is transient.

2. Controlled restart of the impacted service **only** (`openclaw-gateway`, `openclaw`, or explicitly named target from incident evidence).

3. Disable/enable only the directly impacted cron job when loop-failing.

4. Add/adjust guardrails in runbook/config docs (non-secret, reversible).

Disallowed actions:

Approval policy (human-in-the-loop)

Require explicit human approval before:

Core workflow

1. Detect and classify severity (`info`, `degraded`, `critical`).

2. Collect evidence first (status, logs, last run, error streak).

3. Propose smallest remediation from allowed set.

4. Execute only approved/safe remediation.

5. Verify stabilization window (at least one successful cycle).

6. Publish concise incident report.
