DATA OPS

Drift Impact Triage Agent

When a schema-drift webhook fires, an agent traces the changed column's downstream dependencies, assesses blast radius, drafts a remediation plan.

How it runs

The automated pipeline, trigger to output.

  • LogicDerive priority and owning team from footprint
  • OutputOpen a prioritized, assigned Linear issueLinearLinear

What it does

This is the intelligent follow-up to raw drift detection. Given a detected change, an agent investigates which dashboards, models, and reverse-ETL syncs depend on the affected column, writes a plain-language impact assessment and suggested fix, then files a Linear issue with priority and owner already set based on blast radius.

When to use it

Use it when raw drift alerts create too much noise and someone still has to manually figure out whether a change matters. The agent does the triage — separating cosmetic additions from genuinely dangerous breaks — so the team only acts on what counts.

How it works

  1. 1A drift-detected webhook delivers the changed table and column.
  2. 2The agent queries Snowflake metadata and lineage to map downstream dependents.
  3. 3It reasons over the blast radius and drafts an impact summary plus a remediation plan.
  4. 4A branch decides priority and owning team from the dependency footprint.
  5. 5The agent opens a Linear issue with the plan, priority, and assignee.

Set it up

What you configure once, before turning it on.

  1. 1
    Connect SnowflakeWarehouses, queries, shares.
  2. 2
    Connect LinearIssues, projects, cycles, triage.
  3. 3
    Connect HTTP webhookTrigger any URL on agent actions.
  4. 4
    Set each agent's modelWe leave models unset so you pick the tier — fast + cheap, or top-quality.
  5. 5
    Tune it to your dataEdit the prompts, filters, and field mappings so it matches how your team works.
  6. 6
    Test, then turn it onRun once against a sample, confirm the output, then enable the trigger.
