Root Cause Analysis
Root-cause insights rank hypotheses grounded in the evidence bag. They are not automatic proof of causation.
What root cause means here
Request a root_cause insight from an incident. The structured response separates what was observed from what is hypothesized, and lists unknowns explicitly.
Observed vs hypotheses
Observed statements must map to evidence references. Hypotheses are labeled as such — correlated explanations, not guaranteed root causes. See Evidence.
Confidence bands
Confidence bands (high / medium / low) reflect evidence support — not a probability that a fix will work.
Limitations
- Quiet telemetry yields weak or empty hypotheses — not invented outages.
- Recommended next steps are advisory: Recommendations.
