Fixing is where the time goes: 63% of an average incident is spent after acknowledgement.

14 incidents, 22h 32min of downtime in total. The average incident lasts 1h 37min (median 1h 05min, slowest tenth 3h 45min).

Average split: 30min to detect, 6min to respond, 1h 01min to fix.

Slow detections (15+ minutes and twice the median): 6.

Repeat services — checkout, billing, search, api — account for 79% of incidents.

Timestamps show when, not why: root causes belong in the written postmortem.

What to do this week

  • Invest in runbooks and rollback for the longest fixes (checkout, billing, auth).
  • Run a service review for checkout: 4 incidents and 9h 05min of downtime.

Do

  • Write a blameless postmortem for the longest incident, INC-107, and record its cause beside these timestamps.

Don't

  • Don't judge these times against a target the data does not contain: set response targets per severity first.

How to improve

  • Add a "first customer report" time so detection and reporting can be told apart.
  • Add cause and customer impact to each row so the next report can group by cause.

Overview

Everyone agrees postmortems should be blameless, and most are not. Not from bad intent: at midnight, "the config push at 17:40" is the easiest true sentence to write, and once a person is on the page the document stops being about the system.

This agent cannot name a person. It reconstructs the timeline from your logs, alerts and chat, separates what happened from what was believed at the time, and asks the questions that find systemic causes — why the alert did not fire, why the rollback took nine minutes, why the config could be pushed unreviewed at all.

Its action items are specific and testable, and it marks the ones that are really wishes. "Be more careful" is not an action item; "require review on production config changes" is. And it separates what is known from what is assumed, so next month nobody mistakes a theory in the document for an established fact.

Benefits

Written the same day

A postmortem written a week later is a reconstruction.

Safe to circulate

Nothing in it can be read as an accusation.

Actions that change something

Testable items instead of resolutions.

What it does

  • Cannot name a person

    A hard rule, not a tone preference. It refers to roles and systems, which is what keeps it blameless.

  • Separates fact from belief

    What was true, and what responders thought at the time. Both matter, and confusing them is how myths start.

  • Finds systemic causes

    Not what triggered it — what made a trigger sufficient to cause an outage.

  • Action items you can test

    Each one has an owner role and a check for whether it worked. "Be more careful" is marked as a wish.

  • Detection and recovery gaps

    How long until anyone knew, and what made recovery slower than it needed to be.

  • Marks what is unknown

    An unresolved question is a finding, not a hole to fill with a theory.

What this changes

What this changes about your week

It takes over
Turning an incident channel into a document with causes and actions.
Done today by
An engineer at midnight, or a week later from memory.
How often
Every incident.
Typical manual effort
A proper postmortem is half a day while everything is fresh.

Why IT & Service Management in particular. It cannot name a person. If one engineer could cause the outage alone, the system allowed it — and that is the finding that prevents the next one.

  • Runs unattended

    Started by you or by an event, and it finishes on its own. Nothing waits for someone to be at a desk.

  • The same standard every time

    The two-hundredth item is held to the bar the first one was. Consistency is the part people cannot sustain.

  • It cannot act on its own

    Incident Postmortem Agent has no path to sending, spending or committing. That limit is why its output is safe to act on.

How it runs

This agent runs server-side through the PROMIVO runtime. Each run is logged step by step and every tool call is permission-checked before it executes.

FAQ

Why will it not name who caused it?

Because if a person can cause an outage alone, the system allowed it, and that is the finding. Naming them ends the investigation early and teaches everyone else to be quieter during the next incident.

Can it write the customer-facing note?

It can draft the factual basis, without internal system detail. Whether and how to communicate an incident is a decision with commercial and legal weight, and stays with a person.

What if the timeline is incomplete?

It marks the gaps as unknown and lists what to check. A postmortem with a confidently invented middle is worse than one with an honest hole.
