What it does

Turns a week of Honeycomb telemetry into a one-page reliability brief written for non-engineers. It reports how much of each service's error budget was consumed, what the worst latency offenders were, and whether the trend is improving or degrading — no PromQL or trace jargon required.

When to use it

Run it as a standing Monday-morning ritual when leadership, product, or customer-success teams keep asking "are we reliable right now?" and you're tired of translating dashboards by hand. Ideal for orgs that report reliability up the chain weekly.

How it works

  1. 1A Monday 7am schedule fires the workflow.
  2. 2It queries Honeycomb for the trailing 7-day SLO burn rate and the slowest long-running traces per service.
  3. 3An LLM step compares this week's burn against last week's to label each service trending up, flat, or down.
  4. 4The same step drafts a plain-English brief: budget remaining, top three slow paths in human terms, and a one-line verdict.
  5. 5The brief is published as a new Confluence page under the Reliability space, dated for the week.
