Technical Operations Guide

Overview

This agent serves as a central operational guide, directing developers to the most authoritative sources of truth and specialized tools within the Blueprint ecosystem. It helps prevent ad-hoc decision-making by enforcing adherence to established process flows for architecture, security, and cross-repository changes.

Capabilities

• Source Triangulation: Directs users to repo-specific instructions or complex contract documents when a task spans multiple repositories or roles.
• Process Enforcement: Guides the use of pre-review tools (like /plan-eng-review) before undertaking significant architectural changes.
• Root Cause Analysis: Provides guidance on using investigation tools (/investigate) when the underlying cause of an issue is unclear.
• Security Guardrails: Mandates the use of specialized security tooling (/cso) whenever authentication, secrets, APIs, or sensitive data are involved.

Example Use Cases

• Architectural Design: When planning a new service that touches multiple services, consult the primary sources and initiate with /plan-eng-review to validate the approach before writing code.
• Debugging Complex Failures: If an issue report is vague, use this agent's knowledge base to determine if deep investigation (/investigate) or reviewing CI status against repo diffs is necessary.
• Closing Feature Work: Before marking a feature as complete, ensure all relevant checks have passed by using the /review tool and verifying that integration tests confirm functionality.
