What it does

This is an agent-led workflow that goes beyond flagging a column. When new sensitive fields surface, the CEO agent investigates context — what the column likely contains, which jobs read it, and the regulatory category — then writes a structured governance dossier and opens a review linked to it.

When to use it

Use it for high-stakes governance programs where a bare ticket isn't enough and reviewers need an analyzed brief: provenance, blast radius, and a recommended classification ready before the meeting.

How it works

  1. 1A weekly schedule launches the investigation run.
  2. 2The agent pulls new columns and value samples from BigQuery against the prior baseline.
  3. 3For each candidate, it reasons over column names, sampled values, and table lineage to classify the data and estimate downstream exposure.
  4. 4It drafts a Confluence page per finding — evidence, likely source system, affected consumers, and a proposed sensitivity tier.
  5. 5It opens a Linear issue linking the dossier and assigns the governance owner for sign-off.

Set it up

What you configure once, before turning it on.

  1. 1
    Connect BigQueryDatasets, queries, schemas.
  2. 2
    Connect ConfluenceSpaces, pages, blueprints.
  3. 3
    Connect LinearIssues, projects, cycles, triage.
  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.
