recovery.standby_removed

A standby is no longer kept — the creator removed it, registered another in its place, or a recovery consumed it.

When this fires

A standby bot or standby chat leaves the reserve. reason says why: removed when the creator took it away, replaced when a new standby bot took the slot, used when a recovery consumed it — a bot relink from the standby, a one-click Swap & Grant onto the standby chat, or an automatic failover.

Caveats

A standby consumed by a recovery fires this beside the recovery's own events (recovery.resource_failed_over or recovery.resource_replaced, or the bot recovery's recovery.operation_completed); use reason: used to tell it from a deliberate removal.
The readiness checklist counts standbys, so a removed or used standby lowers the score until a new one is registered.
