Incident response confidence thresholds with Jev

Prometheus rules and PagerDuty already page on numeric thresholds. Jev is optional on messy customer-reported incidents or multi-alert narratives: which SEV band, which runbook class? It does not roll back deploys or page people.

This unofficial page is the confidence thresholds slice of the incident response classification pack. Intent: apply the Jev (TypeSafe System One) decision model to incident response classification confidence thresholds. Primary search language: Incident response Jev confidence thresholds. Confirm patterns on docs.typesafe.ai. This site does not sell, issue, or proxy TypeSafe keys. Use a credential you already have from the console or a documented gateway.

Independent angle (cover ≠ clone): Runbooks and pagers stay; Jev classifies messy alert/customer text into SEV / runbook class, then code pages. Not a runbook-clone or status-page IA photocopy. Treat floors as production gates and price the false-reject cost — official 0.5/0.9 sketches are illustrations.

Incident response use-case context

Thresholds turn incident response classification answers into act / review / abstain. They are product policy, not a hyperparameter TypeSafe ships. Official 0.5 / 0.9 sketches are illustrations. This slice also carries the false-reject discussion: over-gating incident response classification hides calibration.

Hub: Use cases. Compare, when the other tool is the real job: incident runbooks.

Confidence Thresholds inputs

You need (1) pinned answers on a frozen contract and (2) labels for SEV gold from ICs, runbook-class gold, and whether a page was warranted. State shape:

{
  "report": { "id": "INC-44", "text": "Checkout 500s since 14:02 UTC after the payments deploy. Status page still green." },
  "signals": { "error_rate_bucket": "high", "payments_deploy_recent": true },
  "policy": { "sev1": "SEV1 = complete checkout loss or safety." }
}

Decision signals and actions

Axis Where it lives Incident response use
choice / score / noul answer payload What to do with the alert/customer incident narrative
confidence Choice & Score only Whether to trust the argmax
Distance from 0.5 Noul Whether customer_impact is decided
FLOORS = {
    "open_ticket": 0.50,      # illustrations — replace
    "page_sev1": 0.85,
}
NOUL_TAU = 0.70  # for customer_impact

def allow(ans, action):
    return ans.confidence >= FLOORS[action]

Do not treat a Noul of 0.5 as a “medium” incident response classification score — it means yes and no are equally likely. Conjunctions stay in your code.

Guardrails and escalation

TypeSafe’s confidence-gated examples use a lower bar for recoverable reads than for irreversible actions. Those numbers are illustrations. For incident response classification, treat page_sev1 as the high bar (paging SEV1 / rolling back via automation). Tune on labels — see offline evaluation.

Band around 0.5 on customer_impact always reviews. Do not copy 0.70 onto Choice confidence.

Evaluation and rollout notes

Fit loop: pin jev-1.13.0 → replay → plot error vs confidence → pick floors where auto-act error ≤ your SLA. Pin jev-1.13.0 (the versioned id) after you fit thresholds. jev-latest and the marketing line jev-1.13 can move. Log the response model. TypeSafe’s published list price for jev-1.13 is $0.042 per million input tokens (vendor claim — confirm on the models page); output tokens are free on that same page. Unused distractors still bill as input.

Official Python and JavaScript SDKs read TYPESAFE_API_KEY and retry documented 429/529. This site does not sell, issue, or proxy TypeSafe keys. Use a credential you already have from the console or a documented gateway.

FAQ

Should page_sev1 use 0.9 everywhere? No. Over-gating hides calibration and dumps the queue on humans. Fit per action.

Can I reuse a Noul τ as Choice confidence? No. Jaggedness: they are not interchangeable. See confidence.

Where is the rest of the Incident response pack? Start with Incident response decision workflow and Incident response human handoff. Cluster hub: Use cases.

If metrics already say critical, should we wait for Jev? No. Metrics page now. Jev is for leftover messy text. See safe defaults.

Can Jev write the status-page update? Not in this workflow. Classification only. Generation is a different job.
