# SLO/Error Budget Calculator

Calculate uptime targets, allowed downtime, error budgets, and burn rates for SLO/SLA management.

## Error Budget

```bash
# All periods
python3 scripts/slo.py budget 99.9

# Specific periods
python3 scripts/slo.py budget 99.9 month week day

# Named aliases
python3 scripts/slo.py budget three-nines
```

## Burn Rate

```bash
# Consumed 15m downtime in first 15 days of month
python3 scripts/slo.py burn 99.9 15m --period month --elapsed 15d

# Simple: consumed 2h this month
python3 scripts/slo.py burn 99.9 2h
```

## Compare Targets

```bash
python3 scripts/slo.py compare 99 99.9 99.99 99.999 --period month
```

## Observed Uptime

```bash
# From downtime
python3 scripts/slo.py uptime --downtime 45m --period month

# From uptime
python3 scripts/slo.py uptime --uptime-seconds 2589300 --period month
```

## Multi-Window Analysis

```bash
python3 scripts/slo.py multi-window 99.9 month:15m week:3m day:30s
```

## Reference Table

```bash
python3 scripts/slo.py table
python3 scripts/slo.py table --period year
```

## Output Formats

All commands support `--format text|json|markdown`:

```bash
python3 scripts/slo.py budget 99.9 -f json
python3 scripts/slo.py table -f markdown
```

## Duration Syntax

Durations use: `30s`, `5m`, `2h`, `1d`, `2h30m`, `1d12h`. Raw seconds also accepted.

## SLO Aliases

- `99`, `99.9`, `99.95`, `99.99`, `99.999` — direct percentages
- `two-nines`, `three-nines`, `four-nines`, `five-nines` — named aliases
