Log aggregation summaries and error clusters
Fingerprint log patterns and cluster errors to surface top failure types and representative stacks—cutting through noise to the primary failure source.

Observability & incidents
5 cases Category 7 of 20
This band maps to SRE/on-call workflows: clustering noisy logs, triaging incident impact, drafting rollback/scale/change steps, shift handoffs, and periodic patrols. It pairs with Platform & release when you fold config and release windows into the same on-call context. Outputs should emphasize timelines, ownership, and escalation—agents must not execute unapproved production changes.
In the case hub it is Observability & incidents (#cat-devops), focused on runtime and emergency response rather than pipeline configuration alone.

In depth
Incident RCA and impact triage
Order alerts, deploys, and external dependencies on a timeline; separate hypotheses from facts and estimate affected users or tenants for war-room shared notes.
Rollback, scale-out, and change drafts
List options (rollback, scale out, throttle, degrade) with risks and verification; include internal comms points without implying unapproved changes.
On-call handoff and summary
Summarize open incidents, temporary mitigations, monitoring gaps, and runbooks; document escalation paths and forbidden actions so nothing is lost between shifts.
Patrol checklists and recurring reminders
Structure health checks, thresholds, and anomaly handling (ticket vs escalate); fits daily/weekly automation plus human review to reduce missed checks.
