API Status Communication

Design how an API platform communicates status and incidents to external consumers - status-page modeling (the four-stage incident lifecycle, degraded/partial/major component semantics, component granularity), monitoring-driven status instead of a hand-flipped green light, pull and push channels, incident-update cadence and templates, public postmortems for a developer audience, public SLA/SLO reporting, and maintenance-window notices. Use whenever the user mentions a status page, Statuspage, incident updates, uptime or SLA reporting, postmortems, or scheduled maintenance - even if they never say "status communication". Do NOT use for deprecation and breaking-change notices - use samber/developer-platform-skills@api-versioning-policy instead.
