A day at the shrine

It fits the day you already have.

Thirty seconds a day for the team to show up for prod, and a shrine to show for it.

  1. 09:30Standup

    Bow before standup

    The first bow of the day feeds the kami and earns +5 karma. Bow every morning to keep your run.

  2. 11:00Deploy

    Bless what ships

    Say what’s shipping and the shrine reads the omens. Shipped rings the bells; It broke opens a vigil.

  3. 18:00Handover

    Hand over the watch

    Pass the pager to whoever is next. A quiet watch of an hour or more pays the room +10.

  4. 19:00Forgot?

    Keep your run

    Turn on notifications: the shrine nudges you before your run breaks, and rings when something goes down.

  5. 02:13Rarely

    When it breaks anyway

    Your alerts open a vigil. The team prays through it together, and when it’s back the credits roll.

  6. MondayEvery week

    A new week

    Keepers this week starts over. Three bows from three people raise the shrine a level.

Rituals

Things to do before anything breaks.

Bless a deploy

Say what’s shipping and the shrine reads the omens first: Friday, after 4 pm, Mercury retrograde. It never blocks a deploy.

Today’s forecast

Every morning the kami reads your sky, from Clear skies to Typhoon watch, with a lucky hour and one thing to avoid.

Draw a fortune

An omikuji for engineers, from Great blessing to Great curse. One per person per vigil.

Burn a blame

Write what happened and burn it. The words never leave your browser. Blameless, with a flame.

The shrine grows

Karma builds it. Bows raise it.

Head temple 5,000 karma · 12 mats A pagoda, a cherry tree and a vending machine that sells Hope.
    Fed today

    Earn your mat

    Each level lays more mats. The best seats go to this week’s top karma; the pager holder gets the on-call stool.

    Three bows raise it

    Karma brings the carpenters, not the roof: three different people must bow within a day to raise it.

    Keep the kami fed

    Skip days and it shows: dust, cobwebs, weeds, then a tanuki moves in. A shrine never shrinks.

    Hang your cloud’s lantern

    Pick your cloud and its lantern lights up on the torii. Heroku’s free tier hangs there too, dark, with a cobweb.

    Plus a weekly vow, seventeen charms to collect, and credits for everyone when the servers come back.

    The TV only watches, and stays paired for the next incident. Prefer a link? Add ?tv=1 to any shrine.

    Every day without an incident is a day someone bowed. Open the shrine.
