Workflow

Pick a workflow.

We will show what it takes to ship it.

What this checks

Workflow

Each workflow needs a known set of systems and actions. Pick one that is real for your team.

  • Take a customer bug from Zendesk to a draft PR · Support → engineering handoff
  • Triage a Sentry/Datadog alert and post a first-pass diagnosis · Alert → incident channel
  • Offboard a departing engineer end-to-end · Access governance · cross-tool

Context

An agent can only finish work it can see. The planner compares the systems you connect against what the workflow needs.

  • Repo (GitHub/GitLab)
  • Jira / Linear
  • Slack
  • Logs (Datadog/Loki/etc.)
  • Metrics / APM
  • Deploy history
  • Incident channel
  • Service owner map
  • Runbooks
  • Sentry / error tracking
  • Zendesk / support tool
  • PagerDuty
  • Kubernetes
  • CI/CD
  • Identity provider (Okta/Google Workspace)
  • Cloud IAM (AWS/GCP/Azure)

Actions

Seeing the problem is half of it. The agent also needs permission for the last step, whether that is a comment, a PR or an approved production change.

  • Read-only · Can pull data, no writes
  • Comment / suggest · Post to threads, suggest changes
  • Open PR · Draft PRs against the repo
  • Trigger CI · Run pipelines, jobs
  • Deploy to staging · Promote builds to staging only
  • Execute approved production action · Run prod actions that have a recorded approval

How to read your result

Next unlock
The single missing system or permission that would let the agent finish more of the workflow, and the approval it should come with.

Questions

Why do coding agents stall on real engineering work?

Most of the work is outside the repo: the ticket, the alert, the deploy history, the owner. An agent that can only see the code stops where the code stops.

Which actions should an agent take without approval?

Reading and commenting are usually safe to run unattended. Opening a PR or triggering CI depends on your review process. Production changes should always carry a recorded approval.
