## What it is
Morgue is a PHP-based self-hosted web application for tracking and managing postmortems (incident reviews). It features a pluggable system and can pull related information from IRC and JIRA, storing links, timelines, remediation items, and history.

## Use cases
- track postmortems after production incidents
- manage remediation items from incident reviews
- build a timeline of events for an outage
- schedule and run blameless postmortem meetings
- link JIRA tickets and IRC logs to incident writeups
- keep a searchable history of past incident analyses

## When to choose
- your team writes postmortems and needs a dedicated tracker
- you want a self-hosted, open-source incident review tool
- you need integration with JIRA and IRC for incident context
- you want a pluggable PHP app you can customize with custom features

## When to avoid
- you need a modern actively-developed incident platform (last release 2019)
- your stack is not PHP/MySQL/Apache
- you want SaaS features like paging or on-call scheduling
- you need SOX-compliant audit tooling
