Google Cloud's native status feed, `status.cloud.google.com/incidents.json`
— not Atlassian Statuspage-shaped, Google's own format, keyless.

**One flat JSON array, no pagination, containing full historical incidents
with their entire update threads inline** — this is not a "recent N"
summary, it is the whole dataset in one response:

```
GET https://status.cloud.google.com/incidents.json
→ HTTP 200, content-type: application/json, access-control-allow-origin: *,
  content-length: 171290 (171 KB for the current window)
[{"id":"J5ia5t9p3g9Q5Wi7r8Ev","number":"847028556969787721",
  "begin":"2026-09-01T14:44:00+00:00","created":"2026-09-01T16:03:12+00:00",
  "end":"2026-09-01T18:52:00+00:00","modified":"2026-09-29T16:09:46+00:00",
  "external_desc":"Multiple products in us-central1-b are experiencing
  network service degradation.",
  "updates":[{"created":"2026-09-29T16:09:46+00:00", ... "text":"## Addendum
  to Incident Report\nThis addendum extends ..."}],
  "most_recent_update": {...}, "status_impact": "...", "severity": "...",
  "service_key": "...", "affected_products": [...],
  "currently_affected_locations": [...], "previously_affected_locations": [...]
}, ...]
```

At probe time the feed held 6 top-level incidents (the window Google keeps
live), none with `"end": null` — i.e. no currently-open incident was in the
window, but the schema supports one (a null `end` would mean "still
ongoing") and every incident carries a nested `updates[]` array that can
itself be updated weeks after the incident's own `end` (one incident's
`modified` timestamp was 28 days after its `end`), so "when was this last
changed" and "when did the outage end" are two different fields that can
diverge by weeks — checking only `end` to decide if a record is stale would
miss a late addendum.

GET, unauthenticated, no account.
