## What it is
A curated collection of postmortem and incident report templates drawn from sources like the Google SRE book and real-world cloud outage reports. It includes editor integrations for Vim and Emacs to auto-load templates when authoring incident reports.

## Use cases
- write a postmortem after a production outage
- find incident report templates for SRE teams
- standardize blameless postmortem documentation
- auto-load a postmortem template in vim or emacs
- learn from real-world incident report examples

## When to choose
- you need proven postmortem structures from Google SRE and other industry sources
- you want to standardize incident reporting across a team
- you want ready-made markdown templates with editor integration

## When to avoid
- you need incident management tooling or alerting, not documentation templates
- you want an automated incident response platform

## Facets
- artifact type: dataset
- maturity: maintenance
- function: documentation, developer-tools
- domain: documentation, monitoring
- platform: cross-platform
- tags: postmortem, incident-response, sre, incident-management, templates, reliability, devops
