Summary

  • Comprehensive guide documenting the alert subsystem architecture (1,318 lines)
  • Covers all 7 trigger types with usage examples and configuration parameters
  • Documents the complete alert pipeline: aggregation → deduplication → inhibition → cooldown
  • Documents all 7 notification channels with code examples
  • Includes configuration file format (YAML), template engine, and rule registry
  • Provides 4 production-ready examples with escalation and team-based routing
