Recent Incidents

Timeouts with check-in receiving

minor

Nov 22, 2025 · resolved Nov 23

Maintenance on our primary message bus is done and all systems are back to normal. This kind of maintenance shouldn't be causing timeouts or delayed processing and we will be digging into it to ensure it doesn't occur again.

Delayed Email Alerts

This incident has been resolved.

Certificate expired for https://releases.deadmanssnitch.com

none

Jul 29, 2025 · resolved Jul 29

The certificate for https://releases.deadmanssnitch.com expired early this morning (US Eastern) which left downloads unavailable for roughly 6 hours. We're sorry for the issue and any trouble it caused. The root cause was that we missed migrating a DNS record used to verify the certificate when migrating to a new DNS provider earlier this year.

False Alerts for short intervals Snitches

minor

Apr 8, 2025 · resolved Apr 8

Our primary message bus is still undergoing maintenance and we have implemented all the mitigations that we can without making larger changes. Taking that into consideration and the fact that we have not seen a disruption which would cause out of order processing within the last hour we've decided to close this incident.

Delayer alerts and emails

minor

Jan 28, 2025 · resolved Jan 28

Alerts and emails are once again being sent in a timely manor. We've identified the root cause as a job which had a missing timeout which was causing issues due to an upstream connection issue. This highlighted that the monitoring we have in place for our worker system needs to be reviewed as we didn't receive an alert that there was an issue.
