## What it does

The skill pulls Agent Monitor data and splits history into a recent window and an equal baseline window before it. Defaults are the last 7 days against the prior 7. Two metrics come out of that: the APIError share of all events, and the tool-failure share measured as the PreToolUse to PostToolUse gap.

You get a table with baseline and recent values, the change in percentage points and percent, a direction arrow and a verdict. Each metric is tagged as a clear regression, noise, or an improvement. Sessions that contributed the most errors are listed by ID, along with the tools whose gap grew. Everything is read-only unless you explicitly ask to arm a rule.

Scope stops at reliability and failures. Cache, cost and compaction drift belong to `regression-watch` from ccam-insights. The dashboard has to answer on `http://localhost:4820` for any of this to work — if `curl` cannot reach it, start it with `npm start` from the repo root.

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add hoangsonww/Claude-Code-Agent-Monitor --skill regression-alert -a claude-code
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `~/.claude/skills/regression-alert/SKILL.md` — Copy the whole skill folder; for one project use .claude/skills/regression-alert/

### Codex

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add hoangsonww/Claude-Code-Agent-Monitor --skill regression-alert -a codex
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.agents/skills/regression-alert/SKILL.md` — For all projects use ~/.agents/skills/

### Cursor

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add hoangsonww/Claude-Code-Agent-Monitor --skill regression-alert -a cursor
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.cursor/skills/regression-alert/SKILL.md` — Cursor also reads .agents/skills/ and .claude/skills/

### GitHub Copilot

1. **GitHub CLI**
```bash
gh skill install hoangsonww/Claude-Code-Agent-Monitor regression-alert
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.github/skills/regression-alert/SKILL.md`

### Gemini CLI

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add hoangsonww/Claude-Code-Agent-Monitor --skill regression-alert -a gemini-cli
```

2. **Platform CLI**
```bash
gemini skills install https://github.com/hoangsonww/Claude-Code-Agent-Monitor --path plugins/ccam-quality/skills/regression-alert
```

### Windsurf (Devin Desktop)

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.devin/skills/regression-alert/SKILL.md` — The legacy .windsurf/skills/ path still works

### OpenCode

**Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add hoangsonww/Claude-Code-Agent-Monitor --skill regression-alert -a opencode
```

### Claude.ai

**Claude.ai**
- Zip the folder and upload it in Settings → Capabilities → Skills

Where a file is given instead of a command, copy the files from the source to that path: https://github.com/hoangsonww/Claude-Code-Agent-Monitor/tree/HEAD/plugins/ccam-quality/skills/regression-alert/SKILL.md

## When to use it
- compare this week's error share with last week's
- find the sessions behind the most APIError events
- measure tool-failure share from the PreToolUse to PostToolUse gap
- rank which metric worsened the most
- arm an alert rule so the dashboard catches the next regression

## Example prompts
- Check reliability regressions for the last 7 days against the prior 7
- Compare error rate only: `errors`
- Check tool failures and arm the alert: `tools` `arm`

  Compare this period's reliability against the prior period using Agent Monitor
  data — error rate (APIError/total) and tool-failure rate (PreToolUse→PostToolUse

  automatically. Use when checking whether reliability degraded.

# Regression Alert

Detect whether Claude Code reliability is getting worse period-over-period, and
optionally arm an alert so it never has to be checked by hand again. Scope is
reliability/failures only — for cache/cost/compaction drift, use ccam-insights'
`regression-watch` instead.

## Input

The user provides: **$ARGUMENTS**

This may be:
- empty or "all" — check error rate and tool-failure rate (default)
- "errors" — APIError-rate regression only
- "tools" — tool-failure-rate regression only
- a window like "7 vs 7" or "30 vs 30" — recent vs baseline window sizes (default: last 7 days vs the prior 7)
- "arm" — after reporting, also create an alert rule via `POST /api/alerts/rules` (only on explicit request)

## Data Sources

| Endpoint | Returns |
|----------|---------|
| `GET /api/analytics` | `daily_events` (365d), `daily_sessions` (365d), `event_types` — split into recent vs baseline windows to compute per-window failure rates |
| `GET /api/events?session_id=X` | Per-session stream — localize a regression to the sessions driving it |
| `GET /api/alerts/rules` | Existing alert rules — check whether a matching reliability rule already exists before arming a new one |
| `POST /api/alerts/rules` | Create a new alert rule (only when the user says "arm") |

## Report Sections

### 1. Windowing
Split history into a **recent window** (newer) and a **baseline window** (the equal-length period just before it). Default: recent = last 7 days, baseline = the prior 7. Use `daily_events`/`daily_sessions` to bucket counts by day.

### 2. Error-Rate Regression
- Per window: `error rate = APIError count / total events`.
- Compare recent vs baseline. Flag if recent is higher. Report absolute change (pp) and relative change (%), plus the recent sessions contributing the most `APIError` events.

### 3. Tool-Failure-Rate Regression
- Per window: `tool-failure rate = (PreToolUse − PostToolUse) / PreToolUse`.
- Compare recent vs baseline. Flag a rising rate as a reliability regression. Name the tools whose gap grew most.

### 4. Verdict
Roll up which rates regressed, rank by relative worsening, and name the most likely driver.

### 5. Optional — Arm an Alert
