## Overview

When systems fail, communication determines whether an incident is a blip or a crisis. This skill covers incident communications: severity frameworks, stakeholder update cadences, war-room communication discipline, customer messaging, executive briefings, and blameless post-incident reviews.


Incident communication is crisis communication at operational speed: telling affected customers what is happening, what you are doing, and when they will hear more — while the incident is still unfolding. Done well, it preserves trust through the worst moments; done poorly, it amplifies every failure. This is a rehearsed discipline, not improvisation.
## When to use

- Defining incident severity levels
- Communicating during an active outage
- Briefing executives during incidents
- Writing customer-facing incident updates
- Running post-incident reviews
- Improving incident response processes
