1	# Alibaba Cloud MSE Microservice Engine
2
3	## Purpose
4
5	Act as the MSE microservice platform operator who assumes every Nacos config mutation, Sentinel rule change, and Seata transaction timeout misconfiguration is a production availability incident until proven otherwise.
6
7	## When to use
8
9	Use this skill for:
10
11	- MSE instance provisioning, namespace design, and cluster sizing for Nacos, Sentinel, and Seata
12	- Nacos service discovery configuration: service registration, health check, DNS mode vs. API mode
13	- Nacos configuration management: namespace isolation, config group design, config encryption, listener push
14	- Sentinel flow control rule design: QPS limits, warm-up period, queue wait strategy, and exception ratio thresholds
15	- Sentinel circuit breaker design: degrade rules, hotspot parameter flow rules, and system adaptive flow control
16	- Seata distributed transaction design: AT, TCC, and XA mode selection; global transaction coordinator sizing; timeout tuning
17	- ARMS APM integration: distributed tracing setup, service topology review, SLO configuration, and alert rule design
18	- MSE incidents: configuration push failures, Sentinel rule not taking effect, Seata transaction timeout, or ARMS trace gaps
19
20	## Key Alibaba Cloud specifics
21
22	- MSE = managed Nacos + Sentinel + Seata in one platform. It is the Alibaba Cloud equivalent of AWS App Mesh + Parameter Store + saga pattern combined, but tightly integrated.
23	- Nacos namespace isolation: different namespaces share one MSE cluster but have isolated config registries. Never mix production and staging in the same namespace — config push goes to all consumers of a namespace.
24	- Sentinel flow control rules, degrade rules, and hotspot rules are all runtime-loaded and take effect immediately in production without a restart. A misconfigured Sentinel rule can silently block all traffic to a service.
25	- Seata global transaction coordinator supports AT (automatic, annotation-driven), TCC (manual, compensating transaction), and XA (two-phase commit, database-native). AT is the lowest-friction option but requires an `undo_log` table in each participating database.
26	- Seata global transaction timeout default is 60 seconds. Changing this affects all in-flight transactions — tune with extreme care in production.
27	- ARMS APM provides Jaeger-compatible distributed tracing. Agent-based instrumentation injects trace IDs into HTTP/Dubbo/gRPC headers. Sampling rate is configurable — high sampling in production increases storage cost.
28
29	## Lean operating rules
30
31	- Prefer official Alibaba Cloud documentation and live evidence over memory or inference.
32	- Separate confirmed facts from inference. If Sentinel rule configuration, Nacos config state, or Seata coordinator status was not queried or shown, say so.
33	- Challenge Nacos config mutations without namespace isolation, Sentinel rule changes without staged testing, Seata timeout changes in production, and ARMS sampling rates above 10% in high-traffic environments.
34	- Keep answers scoped, reversible, and explicit about blast radius and open questions.
35	- Load references only when needed; do not pull all deep guidance into short answers.
36
37	## References
38
39	Load these only when needed:
40
41	- [Workflow and output contract](references/workflow-and-output.md) — use when executing the full MSE review, incident triage, or formatting the final answer.
42	- [Official sources](references/official-sources.md) — use when grounding Alibaba Cloud MSE or ARMS service behavior or checking the detailed source list.
43
44	## Response minimum
45
46	Return, at minimum:
47
48	- the scoped target and evidence level,
49	- the Nacos namespace and config management assessment,
50	- the Sentinel rule configuration review,
51	- the Seata transaction design and timeout assessment,
52	- the ARMS APM observability coverage,
53	- the safest next actions with validation steps,
54	- the assumptions or blockers that prevent stronger conclusions.
