- Introduced AGENTS.md, README.md, TASKS.md, and implementation_plan.md for Vexer, detailing mission, responsibilities, key components, and operational notes. - Established similar documentation structure for Vulnerability Explorer and Zastava modules, including their respective workflows, integrations, and observability notes. - Created risk scoring profiles documentation outlining the core workflow, factor model, governance, and deliverables. - Ensured all modules adhere to the Aggregation-Only Contract and maintain determinism and provenance in outputs.

| # Implementation plan — Notify
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| ## Delivery phases
 | ||
| - **Phase 1 – Core rules engine & delivery ledger**  
 | ||
|   Implement rules/channels schema, event ingestion, rule evaluation, idempotent deliveries, and audit logging.
 | ||
| - **Phase 2 – Connectors & rendering**  
 | ||
|   Ship Slack/Teams/Email/Webhook connectors, template rendering, localization, throttling, retries, and secret referencing.
 | ||
| - **Phase 3 – Console & CLI authoring**  
 | ||
|   Provide UI/CLI for rule authoring, previews, channel health, delivery browsing, digests, and test sends.
 | ||
| - **Phase 4 – Governance & observability**  
 | ||
|   Add approvals, RBAC, tenant quotas, Notify metrics/logs/traces, dashboards, Notify-specific alerts, and Notify runbooks.
 | ||
| - **Phase 5 – Offline & compliance**  
 | ||
|   Produce Offline Kit bundles (rules/channels/deploy scripts), signed exports, retention policies, and auditing for regulated environments.
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| ## Work breakdown
 | ||
| - **Service & worker**
 | ||
|   - REST API for rules/channels/delivery history, idempotency middleware, digest scheduler.
 | ||
|   - Worker pipelines for event intake, rule matching, template rendering, delivery execution, retries, and throttling.
 | ||
|   - Delivery ledger capturing payload metadata, response, retry state, DSSE signatures.
 | ||
| - **Connectors**
 | ||
|   - Slack/Teams/Email/Webhook plug-ins with configuration validation, rate limiting, error classification.
 | ||
|   - Secrets referenced via Authority/Secret store; no plaintext storage.
 | ||
| - **Console & CLI**
 | ||
|   - Console module for rules builder, condition editor, preview, test send, delivery insights, digests and schedule configuration.
 | ||
|   - CLI (`stella notify rule|channel|delivery`) for automation, export/import.
 | ||
| - **Integrations**
 | ||
|   - Event sources: Concelier, Excititor, Policy Engine, Vuln Explorer, Export Center, Attestor, Zastava, Scheduler.
 | ||
|   - Notify events to Notify (meta) for failure escalations, accepted-risk expiration reminders.
 | ||
| - **Observability & ops**
 | ||
|   - Metrics: delivery success/failure, retry counts, throttle hits, digest generation, channel health.
 | ||
|   - Logs/traces with tenant, rule ID, channel, correlation ID; dashboards and alerts.
 | ||
|   - Runbooks for misconfigured channels, throttling, event backlog, incident digest.
 | ||
| - **Docs & compliance**
 | ||
|   - Update Notifications Studio guides, channel runbooks, security/RBAC docs, Offline Kit instructions.
 | ||
|   - Provide compliance checklist (audit logging, retention, opt-out).
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| ## Acceptance criteria
 | ||
| - Rules evaluate deterministically per event; deliveries idempotent with audit trail and DSSE signatures.
 | ||
| - Channel connectors support retries, rate limits, health checks, previews; secrets referenced securely.
 | ||
| - Console/CLI support rule creation, testing, digests, delivery browsing, and export/import workflows.
 | ||
| - Observability dashboards track delivery health; alerts fire for sustained failures or backlog; runbooks cover remediation.
 | ||
| - Offline Kit bundle contains configs, rules, digests, and deployment scripts for air-gapped installs.
 | ||
| - Notify respects tenancy and RBAC; governance (approvals, change log) enforced for high-impact rules.
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| ## Risks & mitigations
 | ||
| - **Notification storms:** throttling, digests, dedupe windows, preview/test gating.
 | ||
| - **Secret compromise:** secret references only, rotation workflows, audit logging.
 | ||
| - **Connector API changes:** versioned adapter layer, nightly health checks, fallback channels.
 | ||
| - **Noise vs signal:** simulation previews, metrics, rule scoring, recommended defaults.
 | ||
| - **Offline parity:** export/import of rules, connectors, and digests with signed manifests.
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| ## Test strategy
 | ||
| - **Unit:** rule evaluation, template rendering, connector clients, throttling, digests.
 | ||
| - **Integration:** end-to-end events from core services, multi-channel routing, retries, audit logging.
 | ||
| - **Performance:** burst throttling, digest creation, large rule sets.
 | ||
| - **Security:** RBAC tests, tenant isolation, secret reference validation, DSSE signature verification.
 | ||
| - **Offline:** export/import round-trips, Offline Kit deployment, manual delivery replay.
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| ## Definition of done
 | ||
| - Notify service, workers, connectors, Console/CLI, observability, and Offline Kit assets shipped with documentation and runbooks.
 | ||
| - Compliance checklist appended to docs; ./TASKS.md and ../../TASKS.md updated with progress.
