Building Intelligent Operations: MCP, AI Agents, and Incident Automation

DC Elastic meetup with two talks: Nick Worthington (PagerDuty) on MCP-powered incident-response automation, and Josh Phifer (Elastic) on how observability AI agents reason over telemetry internally.

Why it matters

MCP for incident response automates alert triage and remediation at scale. Knowing how observability agents reason over telemetry is essential for engineers building or operating production AI systems.

The tokenmaxxing angle

Incident-response agents ingesting telemetry via MCP process large structured context windows continuously. Cutting MTTR through automation forces decisions about context length, tool-call frequency, and token budget per incident.
