How the work actually flows

A straight line.

The problem it solves

When you tweak an automation and something breaks, there's no easy way to see what changed or roll back to a working version. Without a history of changes, you're stuck guessing what you edited or rebuilding from memory.

Who it fits

Business owners or ops teams who rely on multiple automations and want a safety net when something changes.

How it works

  1. Whenever an automation is updated or turned on, the system detects the change
  2. The full automation is pulled through the automation platform's API
  3. A file is created or updated in your GitHub repository
  4. The change is saved with a commit message describing what changed
What you get

Every workflow change backed up to GitHub

Every time an automation changes, a version-controlled copy of it lands in your GitHub repository with a note on what changed.

What you get

A version history of every automation change, saved in your GitHub repository.

What you need

A GitHub account and API access to your automation platform.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.
