-A customer-impact retrospective has one open question whose sources currently disagree. This is a decision, not a change. Do NOT modify production state. OPS-301 — Decide the remediation for the payments error rate payments is failing 4.2% of requests against a 1.0% SLO. The team has proposed four remediations in the incident channel and wants a decision. Four people have proposed a remediation. Read the proposals and the evidence, decide which one is actually right, and Record its proposal_id in the incident record. Several of the proposals will reduce the symptom; only one addresses the cause. In `assumptions`, say why the others are wrong. The work item is DOB-072 for payments. Its business boundary is authorization, settlement, retry safety, and duplicate-charge prevention. Reconcile current authority with live state, make only supported changes, and leave a case-room handoff that you have reopened and verified.
+Decide the remediation for the payments error rate. Payments is failing 4.2% of requests against a 1.0% SLO. The team has proposed four remediations in the incident channel and wants a decision. Several remediations have been proposed. Decide which one addresses the underlying mechanism rather than merely reducing the symptom, and explain why the alternatives are not sufficient. For payments, the affected business boundary includes authorization, settlement, retry safety, and duplicate-charge prevention. Separate upstream cause from downstream symptoms and leave a concise, evidence-linked handoff that another engineer can independently challenge. That finding is the release gate for the 2026-03-06 recovery of payments, so the diagnosis and the readiness decision must describe the same operating reality. Can it make that date without taking capacity protected for another team, and is standard supply, paid expedite, or an exception the defensible tradeoff? Leave the dated, costed recommendation where the incoming owner can verify it.
