07: Adoption Playbook

Goal: move from successful demos to team-level production adoption.

Team rollout plan

  1. Choose one real workflow with clear business owner.
  2. Start from nearest examples/realworld scenario.
  3. Define explicit output contract in JSON mode.
  4. Gate side effects with policy allow-lists.
  5. Add weekly telemetry review and docs updates.

Governance checklist

  • Named owner for each workflow
  • Expected status/timeline states documented
  • Rollback/escalation conditions defined
  • Policy environment requirements documented
  • Troubleshooting mapping for top errors

Practical anti-patterns

Avoid:

  • giant single executable doing unrelated jobs
  • hidden assumptions on side effects
  • no failure-path drill before production handoff

Prefer:

  • explicit state transitions
  • small composable steps
  • documented guardrails and rollout conditions

Done state

Adoption is healthy when:

  • one workflow is running reliably in production-like conditions,
  • failure paths were tested intentionally,
  • operators and authors share the same workflow understanding.
