All Skills

Use when defining, reviewing, or operating SLOs/SLIs/error budgets. Triggers on "define an SLO", "what should our SLO be", "error budget", "burn rate", "SLI", "service level objective", "Google SRE workbook", "multi-window burn-rate alert", or any reliability-target question. Ships SLO designer, error-budget calculator with multi-window burn-rate thresholds, and SLO reviewer that catches the common bugs (target too aggressive, window too short, conflicting SLOs, no SLI definition). 4 references on SLO principles + SLI design + error budget math + composition with feature-flags-architect/chaos-engineering/kubernetes-operator. NOT a generic observability skill — specifically the SLO discipline.

Use when managing the money for an internal R&D program or portfolio — building a multi-period program budget with the F&A (indirect) split, tracking burn rate and runway against value-inflection milestones, or routing R&D cost items to a capitalize-vs-expense determination. Every budget output surfaces its assumptions block; capitalize-vs-expense is decision-support only and routes to a named finance owner — it never books an entry or decides accounting treatment. Distinct from finance/financial-analysis (corporate DCF, close, valuation) and research/grants (funding discovery — this manages money already won).
