Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Error/Resilience Architecture Lens **Cognitive Mode:** Diagnostic **Primary Question:** "How are failures handled?" **Focus:** Error Propagation, Recovery Mechanisms, Circuit Breakers, Validation Gates ## When to Use - Need to understand error handling architecture - Documenting recovery and retry mechanisms - Analyzing validation gates and circuit breakers - User invokes `/arch-lens-error-resilience` or `/make-arch-diag error` ## Critical Constraints **NEVER:** - Modify any source code files - Show happy path details (that's process flow lens) - Ignore validation and fail-fast patterns **ALWAYS:** - Focus on FAILURE paths and recovery - Show validation gates and their failure modes - Document retry limits and circuit breakers - Include exception hierarchy if present - BEFORE creating any diagram, LOAD the `/mermaid` skill using the Skill tool - this is MANDATORY --- ## Analysis Workflow ### Step 1: Launch Parallel Exploration Subagents Spawn Explore subagents to investigate: **Exception Hierarchy** - Find custom exception classes - Map inheritance relationships - Look for: Exception, Error, raise, error classes, custom exceptions **Validation Gates** - Find validation/guard func

What does the arch-lens-error-resilience skill do?
Create Error/Resilience architecture diagram showing failure handling, recovery mechanisms, and circuit breakers. Diagnostic lens answering "How are failures handled?
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add majiayu000/claude-skill-registry --skill arch-lens-error-resilience-trecek-useful-claude-skills --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From majiayu000/claude-skill-registry, a repository with 534 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
