Step by step

  1. Alert fires during a load test: checkout error rate high. Acknowledge and open the incident channel.
  2. Triage: impact (about 30% of checkouts failing), set Sev2, check the latest deploy.
  3. Planned mistake: start reading code to find the bug; the timeline shows 15 minutes lost. Switch to mitigation: roll back the deploy.
  4. Verify recovery on the checkout SLI; post a status update.
  5. Write the timeline from the channel.
  6. Write the postmortem draft with contributing factors and action items.
