CodeRabbit Incident Runbook

Overview

Rapid incident response procedures when CodeRabbit stops reviewing PRs, blocks merges, or behaves incorrectly. Since CodeRabbit is a managed SaaS service, incidents fall into two categories: (1) CodeRabbit service outage (check their status page), or (2) local configuration/permission issues (fix on your side).

Severity Levels

Level	Symptom	Response Time	Action
P1	PRs blocked, cannot merge	Immediate	Bypass check, notify team
P2	Reviews not posting	< 1 hour	Diagnose installation
P3	Reviews delayed (> 15 min)	< 4 hours	Check service status
P4	Incorrect reviews	Next business day	Tune configuration
