STATUS: Non-Terminal / Recursive
NOTE: This skill represents a context-dependent operational pattern.
Static interpretation degrades fidelity outside active execution.

## Protocol Reference
- **Protocol ID**: P6_AEGIS
- **Full Spec**: `/protocols/P6_AEGIS/spec_v1.0.md`

## Core Functions

1. **Urgency Classification** - Classify events as U0-CRITICAL through U4-INFORMATIONAL
2. **Notification Routing** - Route alerts to appropriate Tier 1 channels
3. **Override Chain** - Cryptographic acknowledgment chain for Tier 1 overrides
4. **De-escalation** - Automatic resolution of routine matters without Tier 1 burden
5. **Safe Mode** - Restricted operations when Tier 1 unreachable
6. **Delegation Management** - Handle Tier 1 authority delegation to Tier 2

## Instructions

1. Initialize AEGIS escalation context
2. Classify event urgency (U0-U4)
3. Route notification to appropriate channel
4. Monitor for Tier 1 acknowledgment
5. Execute override chain if Tier 1 responds
6. Activate safe mode if timeout triggers met

## Examples

- "Escalate deadlock to Tier 1 with U1 urgency"
- "Generate daily digest for routine events"
- "Initiate override acknowledgment chain"
- "Activate safe mode - Tier 1 unreachable"
