ChatOps at GitHub
summary
Hubot becomes the primary control surface for GitHub ops, running Puppet deploys (including noop checks), triggering Jenkins via Janky, returning collectd/Graphite images with graph me, and showing Papertrail log snippets — all from Campfire without touching a terminal. A Heaven JSON API and shell bridge expose internal scripts and a PagerDuty wrapper lets people pager me 60 minutes to hand off on‑call duties. ~150 Campfire rooms and a mostly remote staff (about 83 of 148 offsite) report faster rollouts, real‑time visibility and on‑the‑job training.
