Reliability engineers are the first to feel when automation goes feral. Our goal with Plasma Playbooks is to make every automated handoff legible so teams stay in the loop.
Compose a runbook in layers
Start with a plain-language goal. Plasma then proposes actions from our automation library—service restarts, Slack nudges, log packagers—and you can drag to reorder. Every action shows the expected side effects before you commit.
Guardrails worth trusting
- Preview windows materialise real payloads using staging data so you can validate how it feels before saving.
- Shadow mode lets the playbook report back without touching production systems.
- Expiry timers ensure forgotten playbooks self-retire.
Integrated post-incident review
Once a playbook runs, the event timeline attaches a summary with highlights, impacted endpoints, and suggested follow-ups. You can push any of those to your task tracker with one tap.
How teams are using playbooks
- Automating permissions resets after on-call rotation changes.
- Capturing context before a service degradation crosses an SLA.
- Nudging humans only when a high-sensitivity metric crosses a second threshold.
It is automation that stays transparent, and your operators never have to switch tabs just to check the math.
