A device fell off the bus

An Xid, an ECC storm or a device that simply stopped answering. The question is always the same: what did it do before it went.

1. Find the eventThe Events tab lists what siltide noticed, newest first, with a tally of the kinds above it. Filter with sev:critical or kind:xid.
2. See the state nowA device that reports nothing is down in siltide, never idle. The Health tab shows the score and the reasons behind it.
3. Look at the minutes beforeScrub History back to before the event. Temperature climbing, power collapsing, or a link dropping first all point at different causes.
4. Collect the evidencesiltide --once --json for the machine state and siltide --diagnose for what each vendor tool reported. Both belong in the ticket.
5. Hand it offsiltide --record run.jsonl while it is happening, and whoever picks it up runs siltide --replay run.jsonl and sees exactly what you saw.

Every step here is a tab, a key or a flag siltide already has. Install it, or explore the same views with siltide --demo.
