KevinZai What this pack will do
- Scaffold network partition simulation: DNS failure, TCP timeout, latency injection middleware
- Generate circuit breaker implementation (half-open state, threshold config, per-dependency)
- Add bulkhead pattern: thread-pool isolation per dependency, queue depth limits
- Scaffold retry-with-jitter: exponential backoff + full jitter (AWS best practice)
- Generate chaos test harness: controlled fault injection in test env, assertion on recovery
- Add dependency kill switch: feature-flag-gated dependency disablement for safe drills
- Scaffold graceful degradation paths: cached responses, stale-while-revalidate, stub data
- Generate load shedding middleware: request queuing, priority lanes, shed-at-threshold
- Add database failure simulation: connection pool exhaustion, query timeout, replica lag
- Scaffold external API failure handling: mocked failure responses for Stripe, Twilio, SendGrid
- Generate GameDay runbook templates: scenario → hypothesis → inject → observe → recover
- Add chaos engineering CI gate: resilience regression tests on every deploy
- Scaffold timeout budget propagation: context deadlines through async call chains
- Generate failure mode catalog per service: FMEA (failure mode and effects analysis) template
Why Pro-only
Chaos engineering patterns require both infrastructure access and deep understanding of failure modes specific to each architectural layer. Naive fault injection can cause cascading failures in test environments. The scaffolding here encodes production-safe patterns used by teams at Netflix, AWS, and Google — not theory.

Tier check
This skill checks isPro() from commander/cowork-plugin/lib/license.js before running. If your license tier is starter, it surfaces an upgrade prompt and exits cleanly — no partial scaffolding, no silent failure.
