Draft outline details
Step by step
- Read the existing runbook as the on-call engineer at 3 a.m.; note every point of confusion.
- Identify missing symptoms, vague steps, and absent rollback.
- Planned mistake: rewrite it alone and call it done. Fix: have a colleague execute it; they stumble at step 4, so rewrite it with exact commands and expected output.
