What Analyze Failure does

description: Root cause analysis using 5 Whys and fishbone diagrams. argument-hint: [failure-description or incident-report]

Chain these steps:

Use the log-analysis skill to provide supporting evidence
Use the binary-search-debugging skill to isolate when failure started
Synthesize RCA with evidence and prevention strategies

After completion, ask: "Should we write a full postmortem or focus on prevention
