On-Merge Flag Audit: Nudge Owners When Their Flag Goes Stale
When a merge request lands, scans the diff for newly-introduced or long-lived feature flags past their kill-date and posts a threaded GitLab note plus a Slack DM to the flag owner.
How it runs
The automated pipeline, trigger to output.
- TriggerGitLab merge-event webhook firesGitLab
- ActionFetch MR diff and extract flag referencesGitLab
- ActionLook up kill-dates in registryPostgres
- LogicBranch if any referenced flag is overdue
- OutputComment on MR and DM owner in SlackSlack
What it does
Reacts to every merged GitLab MR, scans the touched files for feature-flag references, and flags any whose registered kill-date has already passed. It leaves a note on the MR and direct-messages the owner so cleanup happens at the moment the code is fresh in their mind.
When to use it
Use this to keep flag debt from compounding silently. Catching stale flags at merge time, while a developer is already in the file, is far more likely to result in actual removal than a batch report they ignore.
How it works
- 1A GitLab merge-event webhook triggers the workflow.
- 2It fetches the MR diff and extracts every flag key referenced in the changed files.
- 3It looks each key up in the Postgres registry and compares kill-dates against today.
- 4A branch decides whether any referenced flag is overdue.
- 5If so, it posts a threaded comment on the MR listing the stale flags and sends the owner a Slack DM with the removal checklist.
