# incident-io

Use incident.io from your coding agent to investigate incidents, check on-call coverage, and work with operational docs. The first MCP tool call uses OAuth.

## What it does

The plugin connects an agent to an incident.io workspace through the official MCP server. It can read and update incidents, show on-call schedules, manage overrides and cover requests, and inspect postmortems against what happened during an incident.

Its skills also answer questions about service ownership and architecture, query telemetry, and help create team skills and operational docs. Your runbooks and architecture notes stay in your own repositories; the plugin provides guidance for writing and maintaining them. OAuth runs the first time an MCP tool is used. The authors recommend Opus/Sol level or higher: on smaller models, the workflows may be followed unreliably.

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

**Plugin marketplace**
In the agent chat (not a shell):
```text
/plugin install incident-io@claude-plugins-official
```
In the agent chat (not a shell):
```text
/plugin marketplace add anthropics/claude-plugins-official
```

### GitHub Copilot

**Command from the source**
```bash
copilot plugin install incident-io@awesome-copilot
```

## When to use it
- check the current on-call schedule
- change an incident's status or severity
- look up a service owner and its dependencies
- compare a postmortem's claims with incident events
- draft architecture notes for a system

## Example prompts
- Show me who is on call and whether there are active escalations.
- Update the incident status and severity, then add a short update.
- Check this postmortem against what happened during the incident.

# incident.io

Makes your agent fluent in incident.io: responding to and investigating incidents, working
with on-call schedules and escalations, and authoring the operational content — runbooks,
skills, and plugins — that incident.io investigations draw on.

The plugin bundles the [official incident.io MCP server](https://docs.incident.io/ai/remote-mcp)
(`https://mcp.incident.io/mcp`), so installing it connects your agent to your incident.io
workspace through a standard OAuth flow the first time a tool is used.

Run these skills on Opus/Sol level or higher. Smaller models follow their
workflows unreliably.

## Skills

| Skill | What it does |
|-------|--------------|
| [architecture](./skills/architecture) | Answers questions about how your systems are built, deployed and run, using your architecture docs. |
| [architecture-author](./skills/architecture-author) | Interviews you to write and maintain the architecture docs that say what each system is, where it runs and what it depends on. |
| [catalog](./skills/catalog) | Answers questions from your catalog, such as who owns a service, what it depends on and what a team owns. |
| [doctor](./skills/doctor) | Reviews the health of your setup: sync failures, skills that load but don't get followed, and feedback worth acting on. It reports what to fix and never edits anything. |
| [extensions](./skills/extensions) | The place to start. Reads your current plugins and connectors, works out whether a plugin or a connector solves your problem, scaffolds and registers a plugin, then hands off to the skill that owns the rest. |
| [incidents](./skills/incidents) | Reads and updates incidents, including status, severity, roles, custom fields and updates, and looks back at past incidents. |
| [on-call](./skills/on-call) | Shows who is on call, manages overrides and cover requests on your schedules, and pages people and checks whether a page reached them. |
| [postmortem](./skills/postmortem) | Finds, reads, edits and reviews postmortem documents, checking their claims against what actually happened. |
| [skill-authoring](./skills/skill-authoring) | Writes new skills from your team's knowledge, verifies them before they ship, and improves existing skills from the usage feedback we record. |
| [talking-to-the-user](./skills/talking-to-the-user) | Sets how the incident.io skills talk to you, including one clear next step at the end of each reply. |
| [telemetry](./skills/telemetry) | Queries your logs, metrics, traces, dashboards and databases to find evidence for an answer. |

## Connections

Every connection these skills call, and where it comes from in each environment:

| Connection | Coding agent on your machine | incident.io hosted agents |
|-----------|------------------------------|---------------------------|
| incident.io | The bundled MCP server (`.mcp.json`), authenticated over OAuth on first use | Native tools with the same capabilities |

Skills may also use provider tools the session already has (a Notion search, a wiki
search) — those are the session's, not dependencies of this plugin.

## Where your content lives

This plugin carries incident.io's guidance, not your content. Runbooks, architecture notes,
and other operational knowledge belong in your own repositories, where they live next to the
code they describe and are reviewed like it. The skills here help you write that content
well and keep it current.

## Privacy

This plugin connects to your incident.io account through the bundled MCP server. See the
[incident.io privacy policy](https://incident.io/privacy).
