Incidents are inevitable. How you respond determines whether they are learning opportunities or recurring nightmares. This skill gives you a structured process from first alert to prevention of recurrence.
Step 1: Acknowledge the alert Acknowledge in your alerting system within 5 minutes. This signals you're on it and stops duplicate escalations.
Step 2: Assess severity
Step 3: Declare the incident and open a channel For P0/P1: open an incident channel (#incident-YYYY-MM-DD-brief-description). All communication goes there. Appoint an Incident Commander (IC).
Step 4: Post a status update Within 15 minutes of detection, post to the status page: "We are investigating reports of [symptom]. We will provide an update in 30 minutes." Do not wait until you have a fix. Users need to know you know.
Step 5: Brief stakeholders Notify: on-call manager, customer-facing teams, affected customers (for P0/P1). Use the incident channel as the single source of truth.
Step 6: Stop the bleeding first Mitigation before diagnosis. Options:
Don't spend time diagnosing the root cause while users are impacted. Mitigate first.
Step 7: Diagnose Once impact is reduced, find the root cause:
Step 8: Implement the fix Implement the minimal fix. This is not the time for refactoring.
Step 9: Confirm resolution Verify: error rate back to baseline, latency back to baseline, no new error types in logs, affected users can complete their tasks.
Step 10: Update status page Post: "The issue has been resolved. Affected users can [action]. We will publish a post-mortem within 48 hours."
Step 11: Write the post-mortem Structure:
Step 12: Blameless post-mortem Focus on systems and processes, not individuals. "The deployment pipeline allowed a bad config to reach production" not "Alice pushed bad config."
"We'll communicate once we have a fix" Users need to know you know. An hour of silence is worse than an honest "we're investigating."
"We know the root cause — no need for a post-mortem" Post-mortems are not just for finding root causes. They identify contributing factors, test your detection and response, and create shared understanding. Skip them and the same incident recurs.
