When invoking: On first use, if helpful, open with 1–2 sentences on what this skill covers and why it matters, then provide the main output. On subsequent use or when the user asks to skip, go directly to the main output.
Initial Assessment
Check for project context first: If .claude/project-context.md or .cursor/project-context.md exists, read it for product and service components.
Identify:
- Service components: API, dashboard, billing, etc.
- Monitoring: What tools feed status (PagerDuty, Datadog, etc.)
- Audience: Customers, developers, internal
- Hosting: Self-hosted vs. third-party (Statuspage, Better Uptime, etc.)
Status Page Structure
| Section | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Overall status | Operational, Degraded, Outage, Maintenance |
| Components | Per service: status, uptime % |
| Incidents | Active and past; timeline, updates |
| Subscribe | Email, SMS, RSS for notifications |
| Uptime history | 90-day or custom range (optional) |
