What this skill tells your AI

The instructions your AI receives, as published by codebygarv/ai-skills in skills/documentation/executive-summary-writer/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.

Purpose

Translate complex, jargon-heavy technical documents (incident postmortems, multi-quarter migration plans, architecture RFCs) into concise, high-impact executive summaries for CTOs, VPs, and non-technical stakeholders.

When to Use

  • Communicating major production outage postmortems to company leadership.
  • Pitching large infrastructure investments requiring budget sign-off.
  • Preparing quarterly engineering board updates and business impact reviews.

What to Analyze

  1. Bottom Line Up Front (BLUF): What happened, what does it cost, and what is required in 2 sentences.
  2. Business Impact: Quantify downtime, lost revenue, customer trust impact, and SLA penalty risks.
  3. Root Cause Simplified: Explain technical failure without losing accuracy (eliminate deep stack trace trivia).
  4. Remediation & Investment: Specific budget, headcount, or timeline asks with clear ROI.
  5. Timeline & Accountability: Deadlines, owners, and next status checkpoint date.

Output Format

  • BLUF Callout Box: Core takeaway.
  • Executive Summary Document: 1-page structured brief (Background, Business Impact, Root Cause, Action Plan).
  • Key Metric Table: Before vs After or Outage Duration / Financial Cost.

Avoid

  • Filling summaries with pages of raw terminal logs and assembly/C++ debugging trivia.
  • Sugarcoating severity or evading accountability.
