Get a landlord to actually fix things — the repair request that creates a record, the escalation ladder from reminder to habitability leverage, and the jurisdiction-flagged map of tenant remedies with their prerequisites. Use when asked my landlord won't fix anything, write a repair request, how long can they ignore a broken heater, or what are my options if repairs never happen. Produces the documented request, the severity triage, the escalation ladder with letters, and the remedies decode with the do-not-DIY warnings.

# Repair Request Escalation Skill

The difference between a repair that happens and one that doesn't is rarely the landlord's character — it's whether the request exists as a dated record with a severity the law recognizes, and whether the tenant knows the next rung. Texts evaporate; written requests start clocks. This skill builds the record, triages by habitability (a broken heater in winter and a dripping faucet live under different rules), and decodes the remedy options — with their strict prerequisites flagged, because the tenant remedies that exist in most jurisdictions also have procedural tripwires that convert self-help into an eviction case.

## What This Skill Produces

- **The repair request** — written, dated, specific, severity-framed, sent through the channel that counts
- **The severity triage** — habitability-level / major-function / quality-of-life, because the ladder's speed depends on it
- **The escalation ladder** — reminder → formal notice → the leverage rungs (inspectors, remedies) with letters drafted
- **The remedies decode** — repair-and-deduct, rent escrow/withholding, code enforcement, lease-termination-for-uninhabitability — each as a *category* with its typical prerequisites and its risks, verify-locally flagged
