Frequently asked questions
Why do action items rot?
They live in a doc no one revisits — turning them into tracked, chased tasks is what makes postmortems actually prevent recurrence.
Recurrence linking?
Tag action items to their incident so a repeat incident surfaces the never-done prevention work.
