Infra Monitor: Critical CPU usage at 93%, sharp upward trend detected.
Host: claw-gateway1 CPU utilization has reached 93% and is trending sharply upward (+56% over last 5 readings), triggering a critical alert. Memory and disk usage remain healthy at 57.8% and 14.6% respectively. Immediate investigation into process-level CPU consumption is required to identify the source of the spike. CPU: 93.0% | Memory: 57.8% Anomalies: CPU usage at 93% (critical threshold > 95% nearly reached), CPU trending upward +56% over last 5 readings (concerning trajectory)

Response Plan
2026-05-03 00:03 UTC

Severity

P1: claw-gateway1 CPU at 93% with +56% upward trend; will breach >95% critical threshold imminently.

Root Cause

  • Runaway process consuming CPU (deployment, job spike, or resource leak)
  • Legitimate workload surge without corresponding scaling

Actions

  1. SSH to claw-gateway1 and run ps aux --sort=-%cpu | head -10 to identify top CPU consumer.
  2. Cross-reference process against recent deployments or scheduled jobs; determine if expected.
  3. Kill the process (kill -9 <PID>) if confirmed anomalous; restart if legitimate but misconfigured.
  4. Monitor CPU for 2 minutes; if still trending upward after top process termination, escalate.
  5. Post-incident: review auto-scaling rules and CPU alert thresholds for claw-gateway1.

Watch

  • CPU usage: target sub-70% within 5 minutes; flag if rebounds above 85%.
  • Memory & disk: remain healthy; confirm no cascading resource exhaustion.

Escalate If

CPU breaches >95% or remains >80% after killing top process.

Handoff notes generated: # Shift Handoff Notes - **Incident**: claw-gateway1 experienced critical CPU spike to 93% with +56% upward trend at 00:03 UTC on 2026-05-03. Auto-resolver triggered at 00:20 when CPU dropped to 33.2% and sustained below 70% threshold. - **Resolution**: Incident auto-resolved after two consecutive clean checks. Root cause (runaway process, deployment spike, or resource leak) was not manually investigated as CPU normalized rapidly. - **Current State**: claw-gateway1 CPU stable at 33.2%. All systems nominal. Incident closed at 00:21 UTC (18-minute duration). - **Watch For**: Monitor claw-gateway1 for CPU spikes during next shift. If spike recurs, manually SSH and run `ps aux --sort=-%cpu` to identify persistent runaway processes before auto-resolution masks a deeper issue. - **Follow-up**: Review deployment logs and scheduled jobs around 00:03 UTC to identify what triggered the spike and prevent recurrence.

Handoff notes generated: # Shift Handoff Notes - **Incident Summary**: claw-gateway1 experienced a critical CPU spike to 93% with a +56% upward trend on 2026-05-03 at 00:03 UTC. Alert auto-resolved at 00:20 UTC after CPU dropped to 33.2% and sustained below 70% threshold for 2 consecutive checks. - **Root Cause**: Likely a runaway process, deployment-triggered workload spike, or resource leak—exact process was not identified before auto-resolution. No manual intervention was required. - **Current State**: Host is healthy with CPU at 33.2%. No ongoing alerts or issues detected. - **Next Steps for Incoming Shift**: Monitor claw-gateway1 CPU trends closely over the next 2–4 hours to detect recurrence. If spike returns, immediately SSH to host and run `ps aux --sort=-%cpu | head -10` to identify the culprit process and cross-reference against recent deployments or scheduled jobs. - **Escalation**: If CPU breaches 90% again or exhibits similar sharp upward trends, consider investigating recent code deployments, job scheduling, or autoscaling configurations on claw-gateway1.

Alert auto-resolved at 00:20 when CPU dropped to 33.2% and sustained below 70% threshold for 2 consecutive checks. - **Root Cause**: Likely runaway process, deployment spike, or resource leak—not definitively identified before auto-resolution. Recommended troubleshooting (top CPU consumers via `ps aux --sort=-%cpu`) was not executed due to rapid recovery. - **Current State**: Resolved. claw-gateway1 CPU stable at 33.2% as of last check. No manual intervention was required. - **Watch For**: Monitor claw-gateway1 CPU over the next shift for signs of recurrence. If spike reoccurs, immediately SSH and identify the top consuming process before it auto-resolves; check recent deployments and scheduled jobs. Consider enabling process-level CPU monitoring if root cause remains unknown. - **Follow-up**: Review deployment/job logs from 2026-05-03 00:00–00:15 UTC to identify what triggered the spike and prevent recurrence.

Alert auto-resolved at 00:20 when CPU dropped to 33.2%. - **Root Cause**: Likely runaway process, deployment spike, or resource leak—exact process not identified before auto-resolution. Original AI plan recommended `ps aux` analysis and process termination if needed. - **Current State**: Resolved. CPU sustained at 33.2% for 2+ consecutive checks and remains well below 70% clear threshold. - **Watch For**: Monitor claw-gateway1 CPU over next shift. If CPU spikes again (especially with similar +56% upward trend), manually SSH and run `ps aux --sort=-%cpu` to identify the culprit before auto-resolution masks the issue. - **No Further Action Required**: Alert has auto-cleared. No runbook steps were manually executed. If pattern repeats, escalate to platform team to investigate deployment or job scheduling changes.

Handoff notes generated: # Shift Handoff Notes - **Incident**: claw-gateway1 experienced critical CPU spike to 93% with +56% upward trend on 2026-05-03 at 00:03 UTC (P1 severity). Root cause suspected to be a runaway process, deployment artifact, or resource leak. - **Resolution**: CPU naturally subsided to 33.2% within ~18 minutes. Alert auto-resolved after two consecutive checks confirmed CPU sustained below 70% threshold. - **Current State**: claw-gateway1 operating normally at 33.2% CPU. No manual intervention was required—resolution appears organic (process completed, job finished, or workload naturally cleared). - **Action Items for Next Shift**: Review claw-gateway1 process logs and deployment history for 2026-05-03 00:00–00:20 UTC to identify the runaway process. If pattern recurs, escalate for deeper investigation into scheduling, resource limits, or deployment triggers. - **Watch For**: Monitor claw-gateway1 CPU trends over the next 24–48 hours. If spike repeats at similar times, indicates recurring job or process leak requiring permanent fix.
