# Runbook Generator

Generate a comprehensive operational `runbook.md` from a system's codebase, infrastructure config, and deployment scripts -- written for on-call engineers working incidents, deployments, and routine operations at 3am.

## Contents
- `references/discovery-patterns.md` -- Glob/Grep patterns and config files to inspect during discovery.
- `references/output-template.md` -- The full 9-section runbook.md structure to populate.
- `references/writing-style.md` -- Clarity, urgency, completeness, formatting, and accuracy rules plus output requirements.

## Workflow

1. Discover the system. Run the Glob patterns in `references/discovery-patterns.md` (Step 1) to identify the stack and infrastructure.
2. Read key configuration. Open and analyze the config files listed in `references/discovery-patterns.md` (Step 2): IaC, containers, CI/CD, app config, deploy scripts, monitoring, migrations, load balancers, docs.
3. Identify operational behavior. Run the Grep patterns in `references/discovery-patterns.md` (Step 3) to surface health checks, metrics, caching, jobs, migrations, rollback, scaling, backups, TLS, secrets, alerting, and more.
