description: Create blameless postmortem from the incident we just resolved
argument-hint: [optional: additional context or specific focus]
POSTMORTEM
Generate a blameless postmortem from this conversation.
You just helped resolve an incident. The investigation context, hypotheses, evidence, and fix are all in this conversation (and likely in an INCIDENT.md file).
Output Structure
Write a postmortem with:
Summary: One paragraph - what happened, impact, resolution
Timeline: Key events in UTC (use conversation timestamps if available)
Root Cause: The actual underlying cause (not symptoms)
5 Whys: Dig to systemic factors
What Went Well: Recognition of good practices during response
What Went Wrong: Honest assessment without blame
Follow-up Actions: Concrete items with clear ownership
Philosophy
Blameless: Focus on systems, processes, and tools - not people
Honest: Don't minimize or exaggerate
Actionable: Every lesson should have a concrete follow-up
If INCIDENT.md exists, update its postmortem section. Otherwise create POSTMORTEM-{timestamp}.md.
