How it runs

The automated pipeline, trigger to output.

  • TriggerSchedule: weekly before reliability review
  • ActionPull remaining budget + burn trend per SLOHoneycomb
  • LogicRank services by budget-at-risk
  • ActionWrite burndown report to NotionNotionNotion
  • OutputPost at-risk services + report link to SlackSlack

What it does

This gives engineering leadership a recurring, readable view of where error budget is being spent. It compiles every SLO's remaining budget and recent burn trend into a ranked report, surfacing which services are trending toward a freeze before they actually trip one.

When to use it

Use it for sprint planning or a weekly reliability review when you want a proactive budget picture instead of only reacting to alerts. Good for teams with several SLOs to keep in view at once.

How it works

  1. 1A schedule trigger runs weekly before the reliability review.
  2. 2An action pulls remaining error budget and burn trend for each tracked SLO from Honeycomb.
  3. 3A logic step ranks services by budget-at-risk and flags any projected to exhaust budget within the period.
  4. 4An action writes the formatted burndown report as a Notion page in the engineering space.
  5. 5The output posts the top at-risk services and a link to the full report into the team's Slack channel.
