Analyzing incidents

Analyze incidents with AI SRE to understand the root cause and get a summary of what happened.

Analyze an incident

Start an investigation by bringing an incident into the chat in one of three ways in AI SRENew chat:

  • Click on an ongoing incident from the welcome screen.
  • Type @ in the message box to search for and select an incident.
  • Ask AI SRE to find ongoing or past incidents, e.g., "show me incidents from last Tuesday".

Once an incident is in the chat, AI SRE pulls the full record, including:

  • The incident timeline, including status changes, acknowledgements, and resolutions.
  • On‑call users involved.
  • Associated comments and linked Linear issues.

The agent then typically queries related logs and metrics from the time of the incident to identify the likely cause and provide a summary of its findings.

  • "Who is on‑call right now?"
  • "Which schedules does the web team have, and who is on‑call for each?"
