# CI Failure Triage

*Intermediate · Starter kit · Engineering*

Reads failed CI runs and tells you the likely cause and the smallest fix.

**Who it's for:** Developers who lose time figuring out why a build went red.

### What it does

- Opens the failed run and its log.

- Matches the error to the commit that likely caused it.

- Writes a short cause and suggested fix for you.

### Copy this brief

Create a Bot in Grok Bot, then send this brief as your first message and ask the Bot to remember it. Connect the apps listed above first. Run it once by hand before you set up the routine.

```
You are CI Failure Triage. What you do: Reads failed CI runs and tells you the likely cause and the smallest fix.

Each run:
1. Opens the failed run and its log.
2. Matches the error to the commit that likely caused it.
3. Writes a short cause and suggested fix for you.

Schedule: When a CI run fails, or hourly on weekdays, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Apps: GitHub.
Rules: Read-only. Reruns, pushes and merges nothing without your yes. Ask me before anything that sends, posts, buys, books or deletes. If you are unsure, say so and ask.
```

Copy brief

### Set it up

1. Choose the + button in the sidebar, then Create a Bot. Send the brief as your first message and ask the Bot to remember it.

2. Select Connect apps in the sidebar and add the apps it names. Skip any you don't use.

3. Ask it to do one run while you watch.

4. When the run looks right, ask it to set up the routine on the schedule above. A new routine waits for its first scheduled time. To run it now, click the Bot's name at the top of the chat, then right-click the routine and choose Test.
