Maintenance
Write maintenance announcements that give users everything they need to prepare, stay informed, and confirm completion.
When to Use
- "write a maintenance announcement"
- "we have database maintenance next Tuesday"
- "draft a maintenance-in-progress update"
- "announce that the maintenance is done"
Workflow
1. Check for Context
Read .agents/status-page-context.md if it exists. Use it for:
- Component names — reference the correct service names
- Maintenance window — default schedule if one is defined
- Tone — match the team's communication style
