Error-Rate Guardrail that Auto-Pauses Feature Flag Ramps
When Datadog signals an error-rate spike tied to a ramping flag, the bot pauses the ramp in Postgres, freezes the flag at its current percentage in Vercel.

What it does
Watches for trouble during a rollout and stops the ramp before it spreads. When Datadog fires a monitor alert correlated to a flag that is mid-ramp, the bot freezes that flag at its current percentage, marks the ramp plan paused so the scheduled executor skips it, and tells the team exactly which metric tripped the guardrail.
When to use it
When flags ramp automatically and you want a safety net that halts a rollout the moment error rate, latency, or a custom SLO crosses threshold — without waiting for a human to notice.
How it works
- 1A Datadog monitor alert arrives, tagged with the affected flag key.
- 2The pipeline matches the alert to an active ramp plan in Postgres.
- 3It branches: if the flag is mid-ramp it proceeds to pause; if no active ramp matches it just notifies and exits.
- 4It freezes the flag at its current value in Vercel Edge Config and sets the ramp plan to paused in Postgres.
- 5It posts an alert to Slack naming the flag, the tripped metric, and the frozen percentage so an engineer can investigate.
