The scenario

Someone drops a vague “is prod down?” in #eng. Company Brain correlates it with what’s actually failing right now — and a separate automation keeps a daily error digest flowing without anyone asking.

What happens

Or, without anyone asking, a scheduled automation posts every morning:

What’s really going on

The first exchange is a chime-in (or an @mention — either works) that hits the Sentry tool connector for live error data. The second is an automation: a recurring prompt on a cron that posts to a channel using org-shared connections only, so it never runs as a specific person. If the channel is private, only an admin can target it with an automation, and the bot fails closed if it can’t verify visibility.

Connectors

Connect Sentry (and friends) for live incident context.

Automations

Schedule digests and understand chime-in.
