Research direction

The issue names metadata.json, git-ape-ttl-reaper.yml (or a gh-aw workflow), /azure-monitor-checker, and @git-ape status . Start by tracing the existing deployment and post-deployment health-check flow and how deployment artifacts are produced. Done means expired deployments are reaped, Azure Monitor alerts and health status work, and runbooks are generated after deployment.

Description

Description

The manifesto describes AI in operations: "incident detection, root cause analysis, and remediation suggestions." Git-ape currently stops at post-deployment health checks. This issue establishes Day-2 operational foundations.

Related: #18 (drift detection — another Day-2 capability)

Scope

  1. TTL Reaper workflowgit-ape-ttl-reaper.yml (or gh-aw agentic workflow) that checks deployment TTL (set in metadata.json) and auto-destroys expired resources after notification.
  2. Monitoring setup — During deployment, auto-configure Azure Monitor alerts for key metrics (availability, errors, latency).
  3. Post-deploy monitoring skill/azure-monitor-checker that queries Azure Monitor for resource health status. Enables @git-ape status <deployment-id>.
  4. Runbook generation — Auto-generate operational runbooks from deployment architecture (what to check, how to restart, escalation paths).
  5. Azure SRE Agent compatibility — Ensure deployment artifacts (architecture diagrams, runbooks) are consumable by Azure SRE Agent.

Acceptance Criteria

  • TTL reaper workflow auto-destroys expired deployments.
  • Deployments include Azure Monitor alert configurations.
  • @git-ape status <deployment-id> shows resource health.
  • Operational runbooks generated after deployment.
