Hey folks, I'm Alex from the reliability engineering team at Anthropic. We've just posted the retrospective for this incident:

> On March 26–27, 2026, customers experienced elevated error rates when using Claude Opus 4.6 and Claude Sonnet 4.6. The issue was caused by a networking performance degradation within our cloud infrastructure that disrupted communication between components of our serving stack. We resolved the incident by migrating the affected workloads to healthy infrastructure, restoring normal service by 9:30 AM PT on March 27.

Is it really an answer to say "network disruption" with a bunch of $10 words? Certainly it doesn't belong here of all places.
