Sample content: This is not a claim of a delivered security product or engagement.
Objective
Explain a narrow defensive task that needed to become safer, faster, or more repeatable. State who operated the workflow and what actions could have caused harm.
Design
Document input validation, dry-run behavior, least privilege, secrets handling, audit logs, and failure recovery. Make dangerous operations explicit and require review at the right boundary.
Lessons
Describe what the automation did not attempt to solve. For operational tools, predictable behavior and a clear escape hatch often matter more than feature count.
