incident-runbook-templates

incident-runbook-templates is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from mattmre/EVOKORE-MCP-PUBLIC. It costs 41 tokens per session (2,803 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide to writing incident runbooks: step-by-step instructions for detecting, investigating, reducing, and recovering from service failures. It includes severity levels, escalation paths, verification, rollback, and communication steps.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create service outage procedures, define incident severity, document recovery actions, establish escalation routes, respond to active incidents, and train on-call engineers.
Why use it?
It gives engineers a prepared response when a production service is failing, reducing guesswork and missed recovery steps. It also makes response procedures easier to share and maintain.

Skill for Claude CodeCodex

Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one.

Needs its repository: it runs a file that does not travel with it, so clone the repository first. The line is ./scripts/smoke-test-payments.sh.

Getting it into your agent

It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

incident-runbook-templates scanned grade A with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 9d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Incident Runbook Templates

Production-ready templates for incident response runbooks covering detection, triage, mitigation, resolution, and communication.

When to Use This Skill

  • Creating incident response procedures
  • Building service-specific runbooks
  • Establishing escalation paths
  • Documenting recovery procedures
  • Responding to active incidents
  • Onboarding on-call engineers

Core Concepts

1. Incident Severity Levels

Severity Impact Response Time Example
SEV1 Complete outage, data loss 15 min Production down
SEV2 Major degradation 30 min Critical feature broken
SEV3 Minor impact 2 hours Non-critical bug
SEV4 Minimal impact Next business day Cosmetic issue

2. Runbook Structure

1. Overview & Impact
2. Detection & Alerts
3. Initial Triage
4. Mitigation Steps
5. Root Cause Investigation
6. Resolution Procedures
7. Verification & Rollback
8. Communication Templates
9. Escalation Matrix

Runbook Templates

Template 1: Service Outage Runbook

# [Service Name] Outage Runbook

## Overview

**Service**: Payment Processing Service
**Owner**: Platform Team
**Slack**: #payments-incidents
**PagerDuty**: payments-oncall

## Impact Assessment

- [ ] Which customers are affected?
- [ ] What percentage of traffic is impacted?
- [ ] Are there financial implications?
- [ ] What's the blast radius?

## Detection

### Alerts

- `payment_error_rate > 5%` (PagerDuty)
- `payment_latency_p99 > 2s` (Slack)
- `payment_success_rate < 95%` (PagerDuty)

### Dashboards

- [Payment Service Dashboard](https://grafana/d/payments)
- [Error Tracking](https://sentry.io/payments)
- [Dependency Status](https://status.stripe.com)

## Initial Triage (First 5 Minutes)

### 1. Assess Scope
