Example of a good answer
I've already tried the obvious things. Let's skip the script — what do your logs show?
Skipping the script. I see 503s from your workspace between 14:02 and 14:07 UTC — that matches the deploy we rolled back. Can you confirm the trace ID on your end? I'll have a fix validated within two hours, and I'll ping you at the 30-minute mark regardless.
