What Vent does
name: vent description: Clear the air. Contain the damage, recover, learn from what happened, prevent recurrence. argument-hint: "[incident]"
/vent
Clear the air after an incident.
Intent
Something went sideways. Maybe production is on fire, maybe you shipped something broken, maybe the process failed. This isn't about finding the root cause — that's `/trace`. This is about containing the damage, recovering, and making sure it doesn't happen again.
