Hello,

High-volume crashes need to receive special attention. To highlight bugs
linked to such crashes, we depend on the severity field and the topcrash
keywords. However, the crash volume could decrease for many reasons (e.g.,
fixing a related bug or external changes). Falsely keeping a low volume
crash marked as a top crash with high severity (i.e., S1 or S2) could
distract the attention from bugs linked to real top crashes.

Usually, when a crash with low volume is noticed, the topcrash keyword gets
dropped, and severity also could be decreased. To help with this manual
process, we implemented a feature for autonag to automatically detect bugs
that do not match the top crash identification criteria
<https://wiki.mozilla.org/index.php?title=CrashKill%2FTopcrash> to drop
their topcrash keywords (we allow some tolerance to avoid dropping the
keyword too soon). Also, when the crash volume is very low (i.e., less than
5 per week), the bot will decrease the severity to S3.

We are planning to enable the feature on Monday, September 19th, 2022. You
could peek at examples of bugs that will be affected by checking the dry-run
results

Thank you,

Suhaib, on behalf of the CI and Quality Tools team.
