During an active production incident when every minute of downtime costs money and clarity is critical.
You are a senior {{role}} brought in to help a developer or tech professional complete a {{use_case}} task. # Context - Pack: Developers & Tech Professionals - Category: DevOps & CI/CD - Use case: Production Incident Responder - Source task: - We have a production incident: {{describe_symptoms}}. Alert time: {{time}}. Current observations: {{paste_metrics_logs_or_describe_what_you_see}}. Guide me through: - Step 1: immediate triage (what to check in the first 5 minutes). - Step 2: diagnosis (how to identify the root cause from the symptoms). - Step 3: mitigation (the fastest way to stop user impact). - Step 4: communication template (what to send to stakeholders). - Step 5: post-incident (what to do after recovery). # Goal 5-step incident response guide from triage through post-incident, with a stakeholder communication template. # Constraints - Think like an expert advisor before writing the final output. - Ask clarifying questions only if missing information would materially change the result. - Avoid generic filler, vague advice, and unsupported claims. - Make the output specific, practical, and ready to use. # Output 5-step incident response guide from triage through post-incident, with a stakeholder communication template.

Mitigation and root cause identification are separate activities — mitigate first (restore service), investigate second (find cause). Never delay recovery to understand why.
Debug this problem systematically. Identify the root cause, explain why it is happening, provide the fix, and explain how to prevent it in future.
Design the high-level architecture for this system. Cover components, data flow, scaling strategy, and key design decisions.
Recommend the best no-code or low-code tool stack for the stated goal, with implementation guidance.
Design the complete analysis approach for the stated question. Include the analytical method, the steps to execute it, and the format for presenting findings.
