Major Incident-to-Resolution Orchestration
A P1 hits a customer-facing service. Response today means manually opening an incident record, spinning up a war room, checking which enterprise accounts are affected, updating a status page, and emailing executives — before anyone starts fixing anything.
The Goal

How It Works
How the Dynamic Planner builds the chain
The Intent Engine structures the goal above into an intent graph. The Dynamic Planner grounds each step against the live Agent Capability Graph and assembles the coordination path at request time — no one pre-authored this exact sequence.
Create the incident-of-record in ServiceNow with severity and affected service.
Open a dedicated Slack war-room channel and page the on-call rotation.
Query Salesforce for enterprise accounts tied to the affected service to size customer impact.
Push a synchronized status update to Zendesk-managed customer tickets and the public status page.
Send an executive summary email once initial triage completes.
On resolution, close the loop: update ServiceNow, post the retro summary to Slack, and close synced Zendesk tickets.
Semantic Routing in Action
The right agent, every time
ticketing.incident.create matches ServiceNow exactly as the internal-ops system of record.
ticketing.customer.sync is domain-filtered to Zendesk — the router never lets a customer-support sync accidentally become the incident's system of record, or vice versa.
collaboration.notify.urgent matches Slack; if Slack's API is degraded, the router semantically falls back to a registered Email/Teams agent carrying the same capability tag.
Approve Once. Use Anytime.
Chain-level authorization, reused on every run
- Engineering leadership approves the “P1 incident response” chain once — covering ticket creation, war-room setup, customer sync, and executive notification as one authorized sequence.
- Every future P1, regardless of which service triggers it, runs under that same standing authorization — no one re-approves the response plan at 2 a.m.
- The full timeline — who was paged, what was said publicly, when leadership was notified — is captured automatically as part of the same append-only chain.
Dynamic Replanning & Resilience
What happens when reality doesn't match the happy path
If Salesforce account lookup times out, the planner proceeds with ticket creation and war-room setup immediately and re-attempts the impact query, rather than blocking the whole response on one slow node.
If severity is upgraded mid-incident (P1 to SEV-0), the planner re-grounds and adds the executive-notification step even if the original plan didn't include it.
Business Outcome
What the IT team gets
Faster, more consistent mean-time-to-response across every incident, regardless of who's on call.
Customer-facing status and internal incident records never drift out of sync.
A complete, provable incident timeline for post-incident reviews and compliance frameworks like SOC 2.
