Post-Incident Review Prep
Gather context for a blameless post-incident review. The review itself is a team decision.
The prompt
For the incident on [date/system], gather from emails and Teams a factual timeline: - When it was detected and by whom - Actions taken and at what time - Communications sent - When service was restored Keep it factual and blameless — no fault attribution. This is preparation for the team's post-incident review, not the review's conclusions.
