  • no licenseNo license file was found in the repository. Code published without one is not open source by default, so using it at work is a question for whoever answers licensing questions where you are.
  • 2 stars2 stars. Stars are a popularity signal and not a quality one, but at this level it is likely that nobody has read this closely except its author, and you would be relying on your own review.

Runbook Generator

Tier: POWERFUL
Category: Engineering
Domain: DevOps / Site Reliability Engineering

Overview

Generate operational runbooks quickly from a service name, then customize for deployment, incident response, maintenance, and rollback workflows.

Core Capabilities

  • Runbook skeleton generation from a CLI
  • Standard sections for start/stop/health/rollback
  • Structured escalation and incident handling placeholders
  • Reference templates for deployment and incident playbooks

When to Use

  • A service has no runbook and needs a baseline immediately
  • Existing runbooks are inconsistent across teams
  • On-call onboarding requires standardized operations docs
  • You need repeatable runbook scaffolding for new services

Quick Start

# Print runbook to stdout
python3 scripts/runbook_generator.py payments-api

# Write runbook file
python3 scripts/runbook_generator.py payments-api --owner platform --output docs/runbooks/payments-api.md

Recommended Workflow

  1. Generate the initial skeleton with scripts/runbook_generator.py.
  2. Fill in service-specific commands and URLs.
  3. Add verification checks and rollback triggers.
  4. Dry-run in staging.
  5. Store runbook in version control near service code.

Reference Docs

  • references/runbook-templates.md

Common Pitfalls

  • Missing rollback triggers or rollback commands
  • Steps without expected output checks
  • Stale ownership/escalation contacts
  • Runbooks never tested outside of incidents

Best Practices

  1. Keep every command copy-pasteable.
  2. Include health checks after every critical step.
  3. Validate runbooks on a fixed review cadence.
  4. Update runbook content after incidents and postmortems.
