2. Actual result and business impact:
3. Environment / versions / provider endpoint:
4. Timestamp and timezone / sanitized request or event ID:
5. Last known success and recent changes:
6. First failing boundary (source, endpoint, queue, worker, destination):
7. Could a timed-out write already have succeeded? How will we reconcile it?
8. Retry / duplicate / out-of-order / crash-recovery behavior to test:
9. Existing tests and authorized sanitized reproducer:
10. Owner, scope, acceptance criteria, rollout and rollback plan:
