- Improve handoff quality
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Outlook and Bonsai in Notis once.
- 2Create an automation named Maintenance calendar cluster brief.
- 3Tell Notis to inspect each new maintenance event, retrieve the named Bonsai cluster details, and summarize relevant configuration context and open questions.
- 4Choose New Calendar Event as the trigger.
- 5Pick a report channel and test with one maintenance event.
Questions about this workflow
What if the event names a service but not a cluster?
Notis should flag the missing cluster slug and avoid inventing one.
Can it execute maintenance?
No. It only retrieves details and prepares a brief.
