How to verify incident response setup with your AI

Connect Dotcom-Monitor to your AI client to audit your monitoring configuration. Once connected, your agent can pull your current alert settings to find gaps in your response plan.

Short answer

How can I check if my alert groups are set up right?

Your AI uses the Dotcom-Monitor MCP to pull a list of all active alert groups. It then compares these groups against your intended notification teams to catch missing links or incorrect routing. You'll see exactly where your coverage is thin.

Configuration outcomes

Where your setup gaps appear.

The AI maps your existing setup against your deployment requirements.

AUDIT

Missing alert groups

The AI identifies any monitoring scenarios you haven't created an alert group for yet. You get a list of what's missing.

ROUTING

Incorrect team mapping

The agent checks if the right people are in the right groups. It flags when a critical alert is sent to the wrong team.

VALIDATION

Deployment readiness

You get a clear status on whether your notification logic is solid. This prevents silent failures during a rollout.

HUMAN

Manual fixes required

The AI points out the errors, but you must log in to Dotcom-Monitor to change the actual group settings. The AI won't touch your live configuration.

The workflow

What your AI does when you ask for an audit.

The AI acts as a second pair of eyes on your monitoring logic.

  1. Fetch current setup

    The agent pulls your entire list of configured alert groups from Dotcom-Monitor.

    list_alert_groups
  2. Analyze group members

    It examines the notification teams assigned to each group to ensure they match your deployment plan.

    list_alert_groups
  3. Identify routing errors

    The AI looks for groups that lack a designated notification team or have outdated contact info.

    list_alert_groups
  4. Report gaps

    Your agent presents a summary of where your incident response setup is incomplete or misconfigured.

FAQ

How this task behaves

  • 01

    Can the AI create new alert groups for me?

    No. The AI can only read your existing alert groups to find errors. You have to create new groups manually in Dotcom-Monitor.

  • 02

    Will the AI change my notification settings?

    No. The AI identifies mistakes in your setup, but it does not have the permission to modify your live alert groups or teams.

  • 03

    How does the AI know if a team is correct?

    The AI compares the data it pulls from your alert groups against the deployment requirements or team lists you provide in the chat.

  • 04

    Can I use this to check my Slack notifications?

    No. This specific task focuses on Dotcom-Monitor alert groups. It doesn't check your Slack settings directly.

  • 05

    Does the AI see all my monitoring data?

    The AI only sees the data it needs to answer your specific question, such as the list of alert groups.
