Incident Public Statement
🔵 Stable🕐 updated 2026-06-29
🔷 SkillSpec L3
pm-crisis
Write a single clear, honest public statement about an incident. Use when asked to draft a public statement, a press statement, or an official response to a security breach, outage, data incident, recall, or public controversy. Produces a ready-to-publish statement — acknowledgement, what happened, impact, what you're doing, what affected people should do, and a commitment to update — plus a short and a long version.
What to give it
▸What happened — the incident, when it started/was discovered, and current status.
▸Who's affected and how — scope and the concrete impact on them.
▸What you're doing — the response so far and what's next.
▸What affected people should do — the specific action (reset password, watch for X, no action needed).
▸Voice & constraints — tone, and anything legal/regulatory you can't yet say.
✅ The bar it holds itself to
Every skill in this library self-verifies — these are this skill's own quality checks, straight from its definition.
✓The first sentence acknowledges the issue directly — no warm-up, no burying
✓Only confirmed facts are stated; open items are named as "under investigation"
✓It takes responsibility without speculating on cause or shifting blame
✓Affected people get a clear, specific action (or an honest "no action needed")
✓It commits to a next update by a stated time
✓Both a full and a short version are provided; sensitive claims flagged for review
⚠️ What it refuses to do
Do not open with self-congratulation or context-setting — lead with the acknowledgement
Do not use evasive legalese ("issues may have impacted some users") when you can be specific
Do not speculate on cause or promise outcomes you can't guarantee
Do not state numbers/scope you haven't confirmed — bracket them for confirmation
Do not omit what the reader should actually do next
