Limitations and safe use

Do not use this for

  • Publishing, approving, or acting on a draft before its material claims, source evidence, owners, and approval gates have been reviewed.

Known limitations

  • Use the listed authoritative or identified source surfaces for general Runbooks and Operational Playbooks guidance; local facts, records, values, states, permissions, and results require inspected evidence.
  • Task-specific work requires current evidence for service or process scope, architecture and dependencies, alert or trigger definition, access and permissions, current commands or procedures from owners, expected outputs, stop conditions, safety and data handling, escalation and communication paths, incident roles, rollback and recovery, tests or game-day evidence, version, owner, and approval.
  • Do not infer system state, command behavior, access, diagnosis, procedure safety, recovery result, escalation owner, or production readiness.

Safety notes

  • Minimize personal, customer, employee, financial, credential, security, privileged, health, student, and other sensitive data.
  • Require explicit confirmation before actions that run commands, change live systems, restart or fail over services, access sensitive data, communicate incidents, page responders, deploy or roll back changes, or close incidents.
  • Route legal, privacy, security, compliance, financial, employment, clinical, safety, and other qualified judgments to an evidenced accountable reviewer.
