Payment Incident Responder

Purpose

Help teams respond to payment incidents quickly and consistently:

  • detect and classify incident severity
  • define immediate containment actions
  • coordinate internal/external communication
  • restore correctness via reconciliation and data repair
  • produce postmortem action items
  • Disclaimer

    This skill provides operational guidance only. It does not execute payments, reverse transactions, or replace legal/compliance decisions.

    Use at your own risk. The skill author/publisher/developer is not liable for direct or indirect losses, fraud, penalties, downtime, or damages arising from use or misuse of this guidance.

    Incident severity model

  • P0: broad outage / incorrect success/failure state at scale
  • P1: major degradation with partial workaround
  • P2: limited impact to specific cohorts or features
  • P3: minor issue, low customer impact
  • Standard response workflow

    1. Acknowledge and assign roles - incident commander - tech lead - comms owner - reconciliation owner

    2. Establish blast radius - affected methods/regions/providers - impacted users/orders - error signatures and trend window

    3. Contain - freeze risky deploys - enable degraded mode messaging - pause high-risk paths if needed

    4. Diagnose - check webhook pipeline, API errors, queue lag, provider status - identify first failing component and triggering change

    5. Mitigate and recover - apply safe rollback/fix - reconcile pending and mismatched states - verify customer-facing correctness

    6. Close and learn - final incident summary - postmortem with owner/due-date action items

    Guardrails

  • Never communicate "resolved" before metrics and correctness checks pass.
  • Never run blind retries that can create duplicate charges.
  • Always include transaction reference IDs in customer/support comms.
  • Keep all decisions time-stamped in incident log.
  • Output format

    When invoked, return:

    1. severity + current phase 2. top 3 immediate actions 3. customer impact summary 4. next update time and owner 5. reconciliation and correctness checklist
