Overview

About This Skill

How to Use

[{"step":"Define your workflow as a Gob job configuration file (JSON/YAML). Include all steps, dependencies, and error handling policies.","tip":"Use Gob's CLI to validate your config: `gob validate job.yaml` before execution."},{"step":"Set up logging and notifications in the configuration to capture job status and failures.","tip":"Integrate with your existing monitoring tools (e.g., Prometheus, Datadog) by configuring Gob's webhook notifications."},{"step":"Execute the job using `gob run job.yaml` or schedule it with `gob schedule --cron \"0 2 * * *\" job.yaml`.","tip":"Use `gob ps` to monitor running jobs and `gob logs job_name` to inspect output in real-time."},{"step":"Review the Gob dashboard for job history, performance metrics, and failure analysis.","tip":"Set up alerts in Gob for critical failures to reduce mean time to resolution (MTTR)."},{"step":"Iterate by refining your job configurations based on runtime data and feedback from the dashboard.","tip":"Use Gob's TUI (`gob tui`) for interactive job management and debugging."}]
