How it runs

The automated pipeline, trigger to output.

  • TriggerOperator runs /rollback <project> in SlackSlack

  • ActionPromote previous deployment on approvalVercelVercel
  • ActionAppend rollback record to Postgres audit tablePostgreSQLPostgres
  • OutputReply in thread with live URL + audit IDSlack

What it does

Turns a Slack slash command into a guarded production rollback. When someone runs `/rollback web-prod`, the bot looks up the currently promoted Vercel deployment, finds the previous successful one, and posts an approval card naming both. Only after a second person clicks Approve does it promote the rollback target. Every action — request, approver identity, and outcome — is written to an audit table.

When to use it

Use it when a bad deploy is live and you want a fast, safe path to the last good build without giving everyone raw Vercel access. The forced second-person approval prevents panic rollbacks and gives you a clean record for the incident review.

How it works

  1. 1Operator runs `/rollback <project>` in Slack (trigger).
  2. 2The bot calls Vercel to read the active deployment and resolve the previous READY deployment for that project.
  3. 3It checks whether the requester is the sole approver; if so it requires a different teammate to approve.
  4. 4On Approve click, it promotes the prior deployment via the Vercel API.
  5. 5It appends a row (project, from, to, requester, approver, timestamp) to the Postgres audit table.
  6. 6It replies in-thread with the new live URL and the audit record ID.
