IT OPS

Certificate Renewal Coordinator Agent

An agent that triages expiring certificates, drafts the renewal plan per cert (auto-renewable vs. manual), assigns owners, and tracks each renewal to closure across the org.

How it runs

The automated pipeline, trigger to output.

  • TriggerDaily schedule with expiring-cert inventory

  • LogicAgent classifies renewal path and drafts per-cert plan
  • ActionOpen and track manual-renewal issues in LinearLinearLinear
  • OutputPost coordinator status update to SlackSlack

What it does

Takes the raw list of expiring certificates and acts as a coordinator rather than a simple alert. The agent decides whether each cert is on an auto-renewal path or needs human action, drafts the specific renewal steps, identifies the responsible owner from the service catalog, and opens and tracks the work until the cert is confirmed renewed.

When to use it

When your certificate estate is large and heterogeneous — some on Cloudflare auto-renew, some manual ACM imports, some vendor-issued — and a flat alert list creates more confusion than action. Use it when you want triage and follow-through, not just notification.

How it works

  1. 1A daily schedule hands the agent the current expiring-cert inventory.
  2. 2The agent reasons over each cert: classifies the renewal path and drafts tailored steps.
  3. 3For auto-renewable certs it verifies the renewal actually triggered and notes anomalies.
  4. 4For manual certs it opens a Linear issue with the runbook, owner, and deadline.
  5. 5The agent monitors open issues and re-pings stale ones approaching the cliff.
  6. 6It posts a daily coordinator update to Slack summarizing what is handled versus at risk.
