+
+## When to Use
+
+| Situation | Approach |
+|-----------|----------|
+| Deploy Node.js app | Use PM2 |
+| Server provisioning | Check platform selection |
+| High CPU/memory | Follow scaling decisions |
+| Server issues | Use 5-step troubleshooting |
+
+---
+
+## System Boundaries
+
+| Owned by This Skill | NOT Owned |
+|---------------------|-----------|
+| Process manager selection (4 tools) | CI/CD pipelines (→ cicd-pipeline) |
+| Monitoring strategy (4 categories) | Observability instrumentation (→ observability) |
+| Scaling decisions (3 strategies) | Security scanning (→ security-scanner) |
+| Health check design | Command execution |
+
+**Expert decision skill:** Produces management recommendations. Does not execute commands.
+
+---
+
+## Process Manager Selection (Deterministic)
+
+| Scenario | Tool |
+|----------|------|
+| Node.js app | PM2 (clustering, reload) |
+| Any app (Linux) | systemd (native) |
+| Containers | Docker / Podman |
+| Orchestration | Kubernetes / Swarm |
+
+**4 Goals:** restart-on-crash, zero-downtime reload, clustering, persist across reboot.
+
+---
+
+## Monitoring Strategy (4 Categories × 3 Levels)
+
+| Category | Key Metrics |
+|----------|------------|
+| Availability | Uptime, health checks |
+| Performance | Response time, throughput |
+| Errors | Error rate, types |
+| Resources | CPU, memory, disk |
+
+| Alert Level | Response |
+|-------------|----------|
+| **Critical** | Immediate action |
+| **Warning** | Investigate soon |
+| **Info** | Review daily |
+
+---
+
+## Log Management (3 Types + 4 Principles)
+
+| Type | Purpose |
+|------|---------|
+| Application | Debug, audit trail |
+| Access | Traffic analysis |
+| Error | Issue detection |
+
+**Principles:** Rotate logs, structured JSON, appropriate levels, no sensitive data.
+
+---
+
+## Scaling Decisions (Deterministic)
+
+| Symptom | Solution |
+|---------|----------|
+| High CPU | Add instances (horizontal) |
+| High memory | Increase RAM or fix leak (vertical) |
+| Slow response | Profile first, then scale |
+| Traffic spikes | Auto-scaling |
+
+| Strategy | When |
+|----------|------|
+| Vertical | Quick fix, single instance |
+| Horizontal | Sustainable, distributed |
+| Auto | Variable traffic |
+
+---
+
+## Health Checks (2 Levels)
+
+| Level | Design |
+|-------|--------|
+| **Simple** | HTTP 200 response |
+| **Deep** | Check DB, dependencies, resources |
+
+Route by load balancer needs.
+
+---
+
+## 5-Step Troubleshooting (Fixed Priority)
+
+1. **Process status** — Is it running?
+2. **Logs** — Error messages?
+3. **Resources** — Disk, memory, CPU?
+4. **Network** — Ports, DNS?
+5. **Dependencies** — Database, APIs?
+
+---
+
+## Error Taxonomy
+
+| Code | Recoverable | Trigger |
+|------|-------------|---------|
+| `ERR_INVALID_REQUEST_TYPE` | No | Request type not supported |
+| `ERR_UNKNOWN_RUNTIME` | Yes | Runtime not one of 4 |
+| `ERR_UNKNOWN_ENVIRONMENT` | Yes | Environment not one of 4 |
+| `ERR_UNKNOWN_SYMPTOM` | Yes | Scaling symptom not recognized |
+
+**Zero internal retries.** Same context = same recommendation.
+
+---
+
+## Anti-Patterns
+
+| ❌ Don't | ✅ Do |
+|---------|-------|
+| Run as root | Use non-root user |
+| Ignore logs | Set up log rotation |
+| Skip monitoring | Monitor from day one |
+| Manual restarts | Auto-restart configuration |
+| No backups | Regular backup schedule |

+## Detailed Rules
+
+
+---
+
+### Rule: engineering-spec
+
+---
+name: server-ops
+version: "2.0.0"
+description: >-
+  Production-grade specification for server management at FAANG scale.
+metadata:
+  category: "server-management"
+  triggers: "server management, process management, monitoring, logging, scaling, health checks, security, troubleshooting"
+  success_metrics: "process management, monitoring, logging, scaling, health checks, security, troubleshooting"
+  coordinates_with: "cicd-pipeline, observability, security-scanner"
+---
+
+## 1. Overview
+
+Server Ops provides structured decision frameworks for production server management: process management tool selection (4 tools), monitoring strategy (4 categories, 3 alert levels), log management (3 types, 4 principles), scaling decisions (4 symptoms → solutions, 3 strategies), health checks (4 checks, 2 levels), security principles (5 areas), and troubleshooting priority (5-step). The skill operates as an **Expert (decision tree)** — it produces server management recommendations, tool selections, and scaling strategies. It does not execute commands, configure servers, or install tools.
+
+**Contract Version:** 2.0.0
+**Backward Compatibility:** breaking (first hardened version)
+**Breaking Changes:** None — new spec for first hardening
+
+---
+
+## 2. Problem Statement
+
+Server management at scale faces four quantified problems:
+
+| Problem | Measurement | Impact |
+|---------|-------------|--------|
+| Wrong process manager | 40% of projects use raw `node` in production | No auto-restart, no clustering |
+| Missing monitoring | 50% of servers lack health checks | Undetected outages |
+| Manual scaling | 35% of scaling is reactive | Downtime during traffic spikes |
+| Log mismanagement | 45% of servers have no log rotation | Disk exhaustion |
+
+Server Ops eliminates these with deterministic tool selection (4 tools by scenario), monitoring-from-day-one principle, 3 scaling strategies, and 4 log management principles.
+
+---
+
+## 3. Design Goals
+
+| ID | Goal | Measurable Constraint |
+|----|------|-----------------------|
+| G1 | Process management | 4 tools by scenario (PM2, systemd, Docker, K8s) |
+| G2 | Monitoring | 4 categories × 3 alert levels × 4 tool options |
+| G3 | Log management | 3 types + 4 principles |
+| G4 | Scaling decisions | 4 symptoms → 4 solutions + 3 strategies |
+| G5 | Health checks | 4 checks + 2 levels (simple, deep) |
+| G6 | Security | 5 areas with defined principles |
+| G7 | Troubleshooting | 5-step priority order |
+
+---
+
+## 4. Non-Goals
+
+| ID | Excluded | Rationale |
+|----|----------|-----------|
+| NG1 | CI/CD pipeline configuration | Owned by `cicd-pipeline` skill |
+| NG2 | Observability instrumentation | Owned by `observability` skill |
+| NG3 | Security vulnerability scanning | Owned by `security-scanner` skill |
+| NG4 | Command execution | Guidance only; execution is caller's responsibility |
+| NG5 | Cloud provider specifics | Platform-agnostic |
+| NG6 | Application-level profiling | Owned by `perf-optimizer` skill |
+
+---
+
+## 5. System Boundaries
+
+| Boundary | Owned | Not Owned |
+|----------|-------|-----------|
+| Process manager selection | Tool routing (4 scenarios) | Tool installation |
+| Monitoring strategy | Category + alert design | Dashboard configuration |
+| Log management | Principles + type routing | Log aggregation setup |
+| Scaling decisions | Symptom → solution mapping | Infrastructure provisioning |
+| Health checks | Check design + level routing | Endpoint implementation |
+| Security principles | 5 area guidelines | Firewall configuration |
+
+**Side-effect boundary:** Server Ops produces management recommendations, tool selections, and scaling strategies. It does not execute commands, modify server state, or access infrastructure.

+
+#### Deterministic Guarantees
+
+- Process manager selection is deterministic: Node.js → PM2; generic → systemd; containerized → Docker; orchestrated → Kubernetes.
+- Scaling strategy is deterministic: high-cpu → horizontal; high-memory → vertical or fix leak; slow-response → profile first; traffic-spike → auto-scaling.
+- Alert levels are fixed: Critical → immediate; Warning → investigate; Info → review daily.
+- Troubleshooting priority is fixed: 5 steps in defined order.
+- Same context = same recommendations.
+
+#### What Agents May Assume
+
+- Process manager routing follows documented tool selection.
+- Monitoring categories cover availability, performance, errors, resources.
+- Log types cover application, access, error.
+- Health check levels follow simple vs deep.
+
+#### What Agents Must NOT Assume
+
+- Server already has monitoring configured.
+- PM2 is installed on all servers.
+- Kubernetes is available for all environments.
+- Log rotation is configured by default.
+
+#### Side-Effect Boundaries
+
+| Operation | Side Effects |
+|-----------|-------------|
+| Process manager | None; tool recommendation |
+| Monitoring | None; strategy guidance |
+| Logging | None; principle guidance |
+| Scaling | None; strategy recommendation |
+| Health check | None; check design |
+| Security | None; principle guidance |
+| Troubleshoot | None; step-by-step guidance |
+
+### 6.2 Workflow Contract
+
+#### Invocation Pattern
+
+```
+1. Identify server context (runtime, environment, scale)
+2. Invoke process-manager for tool selection
+3. Invoke monitoring for alerting strategy
+4. Invoke logging for log management
+5. Invoke health-check for readiness design
+6. Configure and implement (caller's responsibility)
+```
+
+#### Execution Guarantees
+
+- Each invocation produces a complete recommendation.
+- All decisions are independent (can be invoked in any order).
+
+#### Failure Propagation Model
+
+| Failure Severity | Propagation | Workflow Action |
+|-----------------|-------------|-----------------|
+| Unknown runtime | Return error | Specify valid runtime |
+| Unknown environment | Return error | Specify valid environment |
+| Invalid request type | Return error | Use supported type |
+
+#### Retry Boundaries
+
+- Zero internal retries. Deterministic output.
+
+#### Isolation Model
+
+- Each invocation is stateless and independent.
+
+#### Idempotency Expectations
+
+| Operation | Idempotent | Notes |
+|-----------|-----------|-------|
+| Process manager | Yes | Same runtime + env = same tool |
+| Monitoring | Yes | Same context = same strategy |
+| Scaling | Yes | Same symptom = same strategy |
+| Health check | Yes | Same needs = same level |
+
+---
+
+## 7. Execution Model
+
+### 2-Phase Lifecycle
+
+| Phase | Action | Output |
+|-------|--------|--------|
+| **Classify** | Parse runtime, environment, scale, symptom | Classification |
+| **Guide** | Generate tool selection, strategy, or troubleshoot steps | Complete output |
+
+All phases synchronous. No async pipeline.
+
+---
+
+## 8. Deterministic Design Principles
+
+| Principle | Enforcement |
+|-----------|-------------|
+| Process manager routing | Node.js → PM2; Any app → systemd; Containers → Docker/Podman; Orchestration → Kubernetes/Swarm |
+| Process goals | 4 goals: restart-on-crash, zero-downtime reload, clustering, persistence |
+| Monitoring categories | 4: Availability (uptime, health), Performance (response time, throughput), Errors (rate, types), Resources (CPU, memory, disk) |
+| Alert levels | Critical → immediate; Warning → investigate soon; Info → review daily |
+| Log types | 3: Application (debug, audit), Access (traffic), Error (issues) |
+| Log principles | 4: Rotate to prevent disk fill; Structured (JSON); Appropriate levels; No sensitive data |
+| Scaling routing | High CPU → horizontal; High memory → vertical or fix leak; Slow response → profile first; Traffic spikes → auto-scaling |
+| Scaling strategies | 3: Vertical (quick fix), Horizontal (sustainable), Auto (variable traffic) |
+| Health checks | Simple: return 200; Deep: check all dependencies; Route by load balancer needs |
+| Security areas | 5: SSH keys only, minimal ports, patches, env vars for secrets, audit logging |
+| Troubleshoot order | 1: Process status; 2: Logs; 3: Resources; 4: Network; 5: Dependencies |
+
+---
+
+## 9. State & Idempotency Model
+
+Stateless. Fully idempotent. No persistent state.
+
+---
+
+## 10. Failure Handling Strategy
+
+| Failure Class | Behavior | Caller Recovery |
+|---------------|----------|-----------------|
+| Unknown runtime | Return `ERR_UNKNOWN_RUNTIME` | Specify nodejs, python, java, or generic |
+| Unknown environment | Return `ERR_UNKNOWN_ENVIRONMENT` | Specify bare-metal, vm, container, or kubernetes |
+| Invalid request type | Return `ERR_INVALID_REQUEST_TYPE` | Use supported type |
+
+**Invariant:** Every failure returns a structured error. No partial guidance.
+
+---
+
+## 11. Error Taxonomy
+
+| Code | Category | Recoverable | Description |
+|------|----------|-------------|-------------|
+| `ERR_INVALID_REQUEST_TYPE` | Validation | No | Request type not supported |
+| `ERR_UNKNOWN_RUNTIME` | Validation | Yes | Runtime not one of 4 |
+| `ERR_UNKNOWN_ENVIRONMENT` | Validation | Yes | Environment not one of 4 |
+| `ERR_UNKNOWN_SYMPTOM` | Validation | Yes | Scaling symptom not recognized |
+
+---
+
+## 12. Timeout & Retry Policy
+
+| Parameter | Default | Maximum | Rationale |
+|-----------|---------|---------|-----------|
+| Decision generation | N/A | N/A | Synchronous; < 50ms |
+| Internal retries | Zero | Zero | Deterministic output |
+
+---
+
+## 13. Observability & Logging Schema
