What it does

Catches sudden, large cash movements as they happen — a big vendor payment, a clawback, a failed transfer — and alerts finance instantly instead of waiting for the next nightly runway recompute.

When to use it

Use it as a fast tripwire alongside the nightly sentinel. When a single outflow can swing your cash position by a meaningful percentage, you want to know within minutes, not the next morning.

How it works

  1. 1An incoming webhook from your bank or aggregator delivers a balance-change event.
  2. 2The flow extracts the new balance and the size of the movement.
  3. 3A logic check evaluates two conditions: did the movement exceed the materiality threshold, and did the resulting balance fall below the hard cash floor.
  4. 4If neither condition trips, the event is logged and the run ends.
  5. 5If either trips, it cross-references the latest cash floor stored in BigQuery to confirm the breach is real and not a stale figure.
  6. 6Posts an urgent tripwire alert to the finance Slack channel naming the transaction, the new balance, and the floor it crossed.
