The problem it solves

Automated tools need their connection details available every time they run, and re-entering that information manually for every task defeats the purpose of automating in the first place.

Who it fits

A team lead or ops person running an automated daily standup for their team in Mattermost.

How it works

  1. Runs whenever another part of the standup bot needs its settings
  2. Reads the saved settings file
  3. Passes the settings back to whichever process asked for them
What you get

Bot settings that are always right where they're needed

You get your saved Mattermost bot settings loaded automatically whenever another part of your standup bot needs them.

What you get

The bot's saved connection settings, ready for use by other steps.

What you need

A Mattermost workspace with bot and slash command access.

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.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
