The question
What is the minimum evidence another engineer needs to reproduce an unfamiliar failure?
The route
I am testing composable collectors, automatic redaction, and a human-readable incident bundle format.
The outcome
Early mock exercises suggest smaller, intentional bundles are easier to share and inspect than complete dumps.
Field note
Diagnostic completeness and diagnostic usefulness are not the same target.
