incident-triage-runbook

incident-triage-runbook is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from thevibeworks/claude-code-docs. It costs 51 tokens per session (339 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of incident-triage-runbook, MIT.

An incident runbook for investigating production latency and error-rate problems in services. It defines an evidence-first order for checking deployments, metrics, logs, databases, and upstream dependencies.

In plain words
What is it for?
Triaging latency spikes and elevated errors, comparing deploy times with service metrics, checking database or dependency pressure, and writing a concise root-cause line.
Why use it?
It reduces guesswork during outages by starting with likely causes and connecting metric changes to specific events.

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-triage-runbook scanned grade A with 0 findings 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.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Origin

This is a copy

100% identical to incident-triage-runbook — 0 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

What it actually says

Incident triage

If you change the order below, say why in #sre.

Order of operations

  1. Pull deploys for the last 6h. Don't open the log first.
  2. Line the deploy timestamps up against p99_latency_ms / error_rate for the paged service. State the gap ("deploy 14:31, p99 moves 14:33").
  3. If a deploy lines up: pull the diff, read it. Check for the stuff in the next section.
  4. Then grep the log to confirm. Don't grep to fish.
  5. No deploy lines up → check db_pool_utilization across checkout/cart/auth/inventory, then upstream deps.

Things that have burned us

In rough order of how often:

  • per-row query where there used to be a batch
  • cache decorator removed "temporarily"
  • new query, no index
  • blocking call in an async handler
  • retry loop with no backoff

Write-up

One line at the bottom:

Root cause: <sha> — one sentence on the mechanism.

If it wasn't a deploy, put the component or upstream dep where the sha goes (db-primary, stripe-api, whatever). Still one sentence.

Everything above that line is evidence. Keep it short; the long version goes in the postmortem doc.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
