+   refuse: the concern is `severity: advisory`, and an advisory EXIT_BLOCK is
+   downgraded by the dispatcher — so claiming a refusal would be inert. Making
+   it real needs an entry in `concern_severity.test.ts`'s blocking allowlist,
+   which that file calls a security-relevant decision; it is transferred with
+   the default flip.
+3. **The greenfield asymmetry stays open.** `_lib/ui_surface.ts` is a PATH
+   predicate — measured recall 20/23, all three misses being a UI *request*

+
+## When to use
+
+Use when classifying an alert, reviewing an alert set, or deciding whether a
+condition should wake a human. Provider-neutral: the classes below hold whichever
+tool evaluates the rule.
+
+Do NOT use when:
+- Establishing which signals exist at all (use `logging-monitoring` first — you
+  cannot alert on a signal the project does not have)
+- Adjudicating a go/no-go verdict (use `operational-readiness`)
+- Running an incident once it has started (use `incident-commander`)
+- Building the dashboard the alert links to (use `dashboard-design`, `grafana`)
+
+## The three classes
+
+Every alert is exactly one of these. The class is decided by **what the recipient
+must do**, never by how alarming the condition sounds.
+
+| Class | Condition that earns it | Destination | Latency of response |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `page` | A human must act **now** or the damage grows | Wakes a named human | Minutes |
+| `action` | A human must act, but the next working day is soon enough | Ticket or queue | Hours to days |
+| `info` | Nobody must act; it is context for when something else fires | Log, channel, dashboard | Never |
+
+**What earns a `page`** — all three, as a condition rather than a preference:
+
+1. **User-visible or irreversible.** Users are affected now, or damage
+   accumulates while nobody looks (data loss, budget burn, a queue filling
+   toward a ceiling).
+2. **Actionable now.** A named human can do something about it at 3am. "The
+   upstream provider is down" is not actionable unless failover is manual.
+3. **Not self-clearing.** A condition that resolves itself before a human can
+   log in is an `info` with a trend, not a page.
+
+Fail any one → it is `action` or `info`.
+
+**What a misclassification costs.** Too eager: alert fatigue, and the page that
+mattered arrives in a stream of pages that did not. Fatigue is not an
+inconvenience — it is the mechanism by which a real outage is missed, and it is
+caused by pages that were never actionable. Too shy: the condition sits in a
+channel nobody reads until a user reports it. The asymmetry is real but bounded
+in both directions, which is why the three conditions above are stated as a test
+and not as taste.
+
+## A page is malformed without all three fields
+
+```
+A PAGE THAT CANNOT NAME AN OWNER, A RUNBOOK AND A FIRST DIAGNOSTIC STEP
+IS A CONFIGURATION DEFECT, NOT A JUDGEMENT CALL.
+```
+
+| Field | What it must carry | Why it is mandatory |
+|---|---|---|
+| **owner** | A named human or an on-call rotation that resolves to one | An alert owned by "the team" is owned by nobody at 3am |
+| **runbook** | A pointer to the procedure — see the contract below | Waking someone with no procedure transfers the whole diagnosis to the least-prepared moment |
+| **first diagnostic step** | The single concrete first action | The most expensive minutes of an incident are the ones spent deciding where to look |
+
+This is checkable from the alert definition alone, which is what makes it a
+defect rather than an opinion. `action` and `info` alerts do not carry the
+obligation — nobody is being woken.
+
+## The runbook contract — deliberately lean
+
+A runbook worth paging into carries five things. More than this and it rots
+faster than the system changes; fewer and it is a link that wastes the minutes it
+was supposed to save.
+
+1. **What this alert means** — one sentence, in terms of user impact.
+2. **First diagnostic step** — the one command, query or dashboard to open. The
+   same value the alert definition carries, so the two cannot drift.
+3. **The two or three most common causes**, each with how to confirm it.
+4. **Mitigation vs fix** — how to stop the bleeding, marked separately from how
+   to repair the cause. Under a page, mitigation is the goal.
+5. **Escalation** — who is next, and the condition that triggers going to them.
+
+Explicitly **not** in a runbook: architecture background, a full topology
+diagram, anything the reader could get later. A runbook is read under time
+pressure by someone who was asleep.
+
+→ Once an incident is open, `incident-commander` owns the roles, the update
+cadence and the post-mortem obligation. This skill stops at the moment the page
+fires.
+
+## Procedure: Classify and validate an alert
+
+1. **Confirm the signal exists.** An alert on a signal `logging-monitoring`
+   scored `unavailable` or `unknown` cannot fire meaningfully. Fix the signal
+   first.
+2. **Apply the three page conditions.** User-visible or irreversible, actionable
+   now, not self-clearing. All three → `page`. Otherwise → `action` if a human
+   must eventually act, else `info`.
+3. **For a `page`, check the three mandatory fields.** Any missing → verdict
+   `malformed-alert: missing-<field>`. Do not downgrade the class to dodge the
+   obligation; a page whose fields cannot be named is either a defect to fix or
+   was never a page.
+4. **For a `page`, check the runbook against the five-item contract**, and
+   confirm its first diagnostic step matches the alert's.
+5. **Record the verdict per alert** — `valid-page-alert`, `valid-action-alert`,
+   `valid-info-alert`, or `malformed-alert: <reason>`.
+
+### Validate
+
+- Verify every `page` names an owner resolving to a single human.
+- Verify every `page` links a runbook that exists.
+- Verify every `page` carries a first diagnostic step identical to its runbook's.
+- Confirm no alert was reclassified downward purely to avoid the three fields.
+- Confirm every alert's underlying signal is `present`, not `unknown`.
+- Confirm the alert set contains no `page` that is self-clearing.
+
+## Output format
+

+## Gotcha
+
+- Severity labels are not classes. `critical` in a tool's own vocabulary says
+  nothing about whether a human must act now.
+- A page nobody can action is the fastest route to ignoring all pages.
+- Reclassifying a page to `action` because the owner is unknown hides the defect
+  instead of fixing it.
+- An alert on a threshold with `proposed` provenance is alerting on a guess —
+  see `logging-monitoring`.
+- Queue depth alerts fire late; queue wait time fires in time.
+
+## Do NOT
+
+- Do NOT ship a `page` without an owner, a runbook and a first diagnostic step.
+- Do NOT page on a self-clearing condition.
+- Do NOT page on a signal scored `unknown`.
+- Do NOT put architecture background in a runbook — it is read under pressure.
+- Do NOT let the alert's first diagnostic step and the runbook's disagree.
+
+## Auto-trigger keywords
+
+- alert
+- alerting
+- page
+- on-call
+- runbook
+- alert fatigue
+- what earns a page

+## Monorepo
+
+In a workspace repository the reach of an edit does not stop at the workspace
+that contains it. A file under `packages/ui` that three apps import has a blast
+radius of four workspaces, and the grep sweep above will not find the edge —
+the importing code says `@org/ui`, not a path.
+
+**Before editing a file in a workspace other workspaces depend on, name the
+affected set.** Ask the task runner, which computes it from the real graph:
+
+```bash
+# Turborepo — everything affected by the working tree vs the previous commit
+npx turbo run test --filter=...[HEAD^1]
+
+# Nx
+npx nx affected -t test
+```
+
+`...[HEAD^1]` is the dependents form: `...` ahead of the selector means "and
+everything that depends on it". Without it you get the changed package alone,
+which is the answer that looks right and misses the point.
+
+**With no runner installed**, walk it in reverse from the manifests: find the
+edited file's owning workspace `name`, then grep every other workspace's
+`package.json` for that name. Those are the first-order dependents; repeat once
+for second order, and stop there per the 2nd-order rule above.
+[`monorepo-workspace`](../monorepo-workspace/SKILL.md) § 4 prints that graph.
+
+Report the affected set as workspace names with the manifest that declares each
+edge, exactly as the reach table above reports file:line — an affected set
+without its citing edge is the same unverifiable claim in coarser units.
