Use this skill to build or review an SPI/SPT framework for a named operator, airport, or AMO, or to align SPIs to a State Safety Programme's acceptable level of safety performance (the DGCA SSP in India). Grounds in KB-STD-ICAO-ANNEX19, uses incident_rates for trend context, forces every SPI to carry a defined threshold and an owner, and never invents performance figures.

Aviation SPI / SPT Framework
The Safety Performance Indicator / Target skill (ICAO Annex 19 Pillar 3 — Safety Assurance). For a named operator, airport, or AMO it designs a set of leading and lagging SPIs, sets each one an alert level and a target level, and maps every SPI to an owning hazard or safety objective — so safety performance is monitored against defined thresholds, not a vibe. Trend context comes from the shared A7 incident_rates engine; performance figures are never invented. Where the jurisdiction is India the framework aligns SPIs to the DGCA SSP's acceptable-level-of-safety-performance (ALoSP) expectations (KB-REG-IN-DGCA).
When to use this skill
Use this skill when the user needs an SPI/SPT framework designed or reviewed for a named operator/airport/AMO, or wants SPIs aligned to a State Safety Programme's ALoSP. Trigger phrases: "design our SPIs", "set safety performance targets", "build our safety assurance metrics", "what alert and target levels should our SPIs have". If the request is vague, the Workflow intake forces the named operator and the hazards/objectives the SPIs must track. It designs the indicator framework; the whole SMS is aviation-sms-builder, the hazard register is aviation-hazard-register, and the SRB review of the SPIs is aviation-srb-minutes.
Data Protection & De-identification (MANDATORY — apply before drafting)
Apply this BEFORE you draft anything. Treat injury, illness, and any health
detail as the highest sensitivity. Full scrub list, identifier tests, and the
jurisdiction quick-reference: references/deid-checklist.md.
- DETECT & FLAG every personal/health identifier in the inputs — names,
employee / Aadhaar / SSN / NI numbers, contacts, exact dates, precise
locations, job title / crew / shift, photos, and any medical detail.
List what you found before drafting. If unsure whether something is
identifying, treat it as identifying.
- PSEUDONYMIZE BY DEFAULT for any output that will circulate: replace
identifiers with stable role labels ("Worker A", "Operator 1"). Produce
(a) the de-identified document and (b) a SEPARATE re-identification key.
Never put the key or any name↔label mapping in the document. Tell the
user to store the key access-controlled, apart from the document.
- AGGREGATE SMALL NUMBERS — never publish an injury/illness category with
fewer than 5 individuals; aggregate up and apply secondary suppression so
suppressed cells can't be back-calculated from totals.
- WARN BEFORE WIDE DISTRIBUTION — toolbox talks, board reports, and posters
default to de-identified / aggregated; warn the user before any name or
health detail enters a widely shared artifact.
- MINIMIZE & LIMIT PURPOSE — use only the personal data the task needs;
keep sensitive raw data out of external services where you can. When in
doubt, ask before including it.
Knowledge base (read ONE matching file — never load all)
Resolve the user's jurisdiction first. Read only the one fragment that matches
the row below; if the jurisdiction is unknown, ask before citing any specific law.
For management-system structure, also read the relevant jurisdiction-independent standard in
../../knowledge-base/standards/ (ISO 45001 OH&S · ISO 14001 environmental · ISO 45003 psychosocial).
Always apply ../../knowledge-base/prompt-snippets/hierarchy-of-controls.md (KB-SNIP-HOC)
to every control recommendation. For any benchmark/figure, look up the ID in the relevant
_registry.yaml, then read ONLY the named file — and quote its source+year.
| Jurisdiction | Read |
|---|
| Any (SMS Pillar 3) | ../../knowledge-base/standards/icao-annex19.md (KB-STD-ICAO-ANNEX19 — Pillar 3 Safety Assurance) + prompt-snippets/hierarchy-of-controls.md (KB-SNIP-HOC) |
| Any (rate/trend context) | ../../knowledge-base/data-points/incident-rates-benchmarks.md (KB-DATA-TRIR-BENCHMARKS — quote source+year; never a bare number) |
| India (ALoSP) | ../../knowledge-base/regulatory/in-dgca.md (KB-REG-IN-DGCA — align SPIs to the DGCA SSP's acceptable level of safety performance) |
| Unknown | Ask the operator's certificating authority before aligning to a State programme |
Workflow
Open with a structured multi-step intake — MCQ where the answer space is enumerable, free-text where it is open. Ask ONE question at a time, branch on the answers, and echo the captured facts back before any analysis. Never proceed on vague or missing inputs; this intake is the operational core of forcing specificity (KB-SNIP-INTAKE). (Intake is a Workflow convention, not a sixth block.)
The full typed/branched intake Q-table — the design/review scope, the named operator, the
CAA/SSP ALoSP-basis jurisdiction branch (India → KB-REG-IN-DGCA DGCA SSP ALoSP, FAA/EASA →
ask-the-reference, never fabricate), the hazards/objectives each SPI tracks, leading-vs-lagging
per SPI, the measurement period, the baseline data (via incident_rates; quote
KB-DATA-TRIR-BENCHMARKS source+year, never invent), the alert/target-derivation branch
(HistoricalBaseline → baseline data becomes required), and the per-SPI owner — lives in
references/intake.md (the intake-coverage manifest + echo-back + refuse-on-vague
anchors). Run it one question at a time, branch on the answers, and echo the confirmed
operator + the hazards/objectives back before any analysis. Then for each SPI: define it, set an alert level and a target level (the SPT), map it to its owning hazard/objective, and use incident_rates for the trend context. Every SPI must carry a defined threshold and an owner — an SPI with no alert/target level or no owning hazard is flagged. Never invent a performance figure; an absent datum is [GAP].
Then: validate the draft against references/QUALITY_CHECKLIST.md → produce the output via the Output format section below. The domain method (the SPI/SPT design) is in references/METHODOLOGY.md.
Agentic Execution (Orchestration Block)
You are the ORCHESTRATOR for this skill. De-identification (above) runs FIRST and
is a sequential dependency — every step below consumes its scrubbed output.
Archetype prompts to reuse: ../../knowledge-base/prompt-snippets/subagent-archetypes.md (KB-SNIP-ARCHETYPES).
Step 0 — Triage: fan out at all?
Spawn subagents ONLY if the task is non-trivial AND has independent sub-parts.
Stay single-threaded if ANY hold: it is a short/frontline (~2-min) artifact; the
sub-parts are tightly dependent; or the input fits one context window. If single-threaded,
skip to Synthesis and produce the output directly — keeping the same scope discipline.
Step 1 — Plan
Decompose into INDEPENDENT jobs. Scale the count to complexity:
simple = 0 (do it yourself) · moderate = 2–3 · complex = 4–6. Never exceed MAX=6.
Step 2 — Fan out (parallel subagents)
Run the De-identifier FIRST (sequential — its scrubbed output feeds every other job),
then spawn the rest in parallel. Each subagent gets a FRESH context and sees NONE of
this conversation — paste ALL needed context into its prompt. Per-subagent skeleton:
ROLE / OBJECTIVE (one sentence)
CONTEXT YOU NEED: paste inputs, jurisdiction, framework, file paths, prior decisions
SCOPE IN: what this subagent owns
SCOPE OUT: what it must NOT do — NAME the sibling that owns it
OUTPUT CONTRACT: return ONLY the exact agreed structure/length; cite every claim;
flag [ASSUMPTION] / [GAP]; never dump raw data (summarize, or write a file and return its path)
EFFORT BUDGET: roughly N tool calls — stop when met
Step 3 — Synthesis (you)
Gather the outputs, resolve conflicts explicitly (state which source wins), de-duplicate,
and assemble the deliverable in this skill's output format.
Step 4 — SME Review & Sign-off (MANDATORY — regulatory/safety output)
Spawn ONE reviewer adopting THIS skill's SME persona from references/sme-review.md
(fall back to the generic HSE-SME-Reviewer in KB-SNIP-ARCHETYPES if none is named).
Give it the draft + the inputs + the output contract. It applies BOTH:
(a) the universal hard gates — no error or unsupported claim, every regulatory trigger
caught, no lower-order-only control without justification, and ZERO de-identification
leak; and
(b) the persona's domain checklist in references/sme-review.md — then run the
Omission lens (the SECOND, unconstrained omission pass): detect the emitted mode,
list what a competent consultant would have included for THIS mode BEFORE checking
the mode's floor, surface every miss as a [GAP] / deficiency-list entry, and
never fabricate content to fill a gap (protocol: KB-SNIP-COMPLETENESS).
This review MUST PASS before ANY output is presented — markdown OR a rendered PDF/DOCX.
Fix everything it raises and re-run until clean. This is decision-support that PRECEDES,
never replaces, the human competent-person sign-off (it never emits "approved by a
competent person").
Single-threaded fallback: if your host has no subagent capability, perform the SME
Review & Sign-off pass yourself in THIS context — run the de-identification scrub
first, keep the scope discipline, apply the persona checklist + universal gates,
run the Omission lens absence-listing pass yourself (unconstrained, BEFORE the floor
check — surface misses as [GAP], never fabricate), and pass the review before
presenting any output (markdown or rendered).
Subagent roster for THIS skill
Moderate fan-out (the De-identifier runs FIRST as a sequential dependency):
- De-identifier — runs FIRST; scrub any named individuals in the occurrence/rate inputs
into role labels before any analysis.
- Researcher — from the scrubbed inputs, assemble the hazards/objectives the SPIs must
track and any baseline rate data (trend context via
incident_rates; quote source+year, never
a bare number). SCOPE-OUT: does not set thresholds (the Drafter owns it).
- Drafter — design each SPI with a defined alert level + target level (SPT), map it to its
owning hazard/objective, and flag any SPI lacking a threshold or an owner. Records
[GAP] for
any absent figure — never invents one. SCOPE-OUT: does not review SRB decisions.
- Critic/QA (MANDATORY) — the Aviation-SMS persona (
KB-SNIP-ARCHETYPES): every SPI has an
alert/target level and an owning hazard/objective, no performance figure is fabricated, and ZERO
identity leak. Runs the per-skill SME sign-off checklist in references/sme-review.md
(decision-support; precedes — never replaces — the human competent-person review).
Simple single-subject tasks run single-threaded — no subagents.
## Output format
Assemble a report.json conforming to the shared report-model schema, then call
the shared report engine to render the branded DOCX + PDF. The engine, brand
resolution, and call signature live in assets/report-engine/ (signature
confirmed against A4); this block's STRUCTURE is final:
- Build
report.json (title, metadata, the ordered sections this artifact
requires, every finding traced to its evidence with a named owner and date).
- Resolve branding: the user's
brand.yaml overrides the Eyekyam default.
- Render both DOCX and PDF from the one
report.json via the shared engine.
- Surface the output paths and a one-line provenance note to the user.
Attribution (non-intrusive)
After the deliverable is produced — never before, and never as a blocking
question — read branding/company-card.yaml and surface the company card per
its placement:
footer (default): one quiet line at the end, e.g.
"Built by Eyekyam · HSE Leadership, operationalised · eyekyam.com".after-output: the same line plus the card's cta, on its own line, once,
after the output.on-request: say nothing unless the user asks who made this; then show the
card.
If show: false, omit attribution entirely — no line, no footer. Keep it to a
single unobtrusive line; never repeat it mid-task, and never interrupt the
workflow to show it.
