Infra Monitor: CPU usage critically high at 94.2%, rapidly escalating.
Host: claw-gateway1 CPU usage has reached 94.2% and is trending sharply upward (+61.5% over last 5 readings), crossing the critical red threshold of 95%. All other metrics are healthy with memory at 42.7%, disk usage well under capacity, and process count nominal at 140. Immediate investigation required to identify the resource-consuming process or workload. CPU: 94.2% | Memory: 42.7% Anomalies: CPU usage 94.2% — critically high and approaching absolute maximum, CPU trending upward at +61.5% over last 5 readings — unsustainable trajectory

Response Plan

Severity

P1 — claw-gateway1 CPU at 94.2%, trending +61.5%, will breach 95% ceiling within minutes; risk of service degradation/outage.

Root Cause

  • Runaway process consuming CPU (identify via top/ps aux)
  • Deployment or workload spike triggering resource exhaustion

Actions

  1. SSH to claw-gateway1 and run top -bn1 | head -20 + ps aux --sort=-%cpu | head -15 to identify culprit process.
  2. Cross-check Incident Logger for pattern: spike vs. sustained; assess if recent deploy correlates.
  3. Kill or throttle offending process if safe; else prepare for controlled restart.
  4. Confirm CPU drops below 85% and stabilizes.
  5. Document process name and CPU% spike in ticket for post-incident review.

Watch

  • CPU % — must drop to <80% within 5 min; if still >90%, escalate immediately.
  • Process count — watch for new processes spawning; indicates cascading failure.

Escalate If

CPU remains >95% after process termination OR unable to identify culprit within 3 minutes.

Handoff notes generated: # Shift Handoff Notes - **Incident:** CPU spike on claw-gateway1 reached 94.2% at 00:03 UTC on 2026-07-24 with rapid escalation (+61.5% trend). P1 severity due to risk of service degradation. - **Resolution:** Auto-resolver detected CPU sustained below 70% threshold for 2 consecutive checks; incident auto-resolved at 00:20 UTC with CPU at 13.5%. Root cause (runaway process or workload spike) was not explicitly identified in logs. - **Current State:** claw-gateway1 operating normally. No manual intervention was required. - **Watch For:** Monitor claw-gateway1 CPU closely over next shift for recurrence. If spike returns, manually SSH in and run `top -bn1 | head -20` + `ps aux --sort=-%cpu | head -15` to identify the culprit process. Check Incident Logger for deployment correlation and workload patterns. - **Outstanding Items:** Determine if spike was tied to recent deployment or workload change; consider adding process-level alerts if this becomes a pattern.
