You are not providing enough information on what exactly is happening, but by the limited information you have provided, it might not actually be dead. There is even a chance that it would bounce back on it's own. It's also possible that an good audit could show some issues that can be remedied.

Been LIVE in July, drop in September. The SEO game is much longer than 3-6 months.
Just keep the good job there, and you will see improvements.
From my experience, it's good to read the GSC messages too. Fix what G recommends, and add your piece of salt and pepper.

Check Google Search Console for manual penalties or security issues. If clean, it might be a core update. Wait it out while improving content and backlinks. Sometimes sites recover on their own

No. There's no any notification on gsc about manual or security.

Click on full report, and see if the impressions went to 0 as well. if the impressions went to 0 it may mean that you got penalized, but you have to check a lot of things before you say so.
Check the following
- Double check that you sitemap is working well and added to GSC
- Check Core Web Vital and see if you have an issue
- Check the HTTPS
- Check the indexing pages (to see if your pages/posts are indexing)
If you have impressions but 0 clicks, then it means your website decreased in ranking and you should analyze your website to see where the problem occurs:
- Do an SEO technical audit
- Double check your titles and update them
- Update old content and make them better
- Disavow any bad quality backlinks

Like you, my website lost rankings for all keywords three days ago. Currently, the site has no visibility or traffic. Meanwhile, I haven't received any notifications of manual actions or malware in the Google Search Console.
The site still is indexed normally.
I'm not sure if this is due to Google's August spam update.
This is a one and a half year old website

Don’t panic just yet. If there are no manual penalties, it’s likely a core update or algorithmic shift. Focus on auditing your site: check technical SEO, update old content, improve internal linking, and earn fresh high-quality backlinks. Sometimes sites bounce back after a few weeks once Google re-evaluates.
