Incident triage & on-call summary

Turn a noisy alert into a triaged incident with a written first assessment.

The problem

At 3am an alert fires and the on-call engineer starts from zero: which service, what changed, is anyone else seeing it. The first ten minutes go to gathering context that already lives across five tools.

Static alert routing pages someone, but it can't say what's likely wrong or whether three alerts are really one incident.

How Actuant runs it

One trigger, a few steps, and an Agent node making the call a static rule can’t — every step recorded so you can see exactly what happened.
