Chapter 15: Worked Example: Converting an Ansible Playbook to a Go Temporal Workflow
An end-to-end example of migrating a procedural runbook to a durable Temporal workflow using reference implementations, phased prompts, and verification.
An end-to-end example of migrating a procedural runbook to a durable Temporal workflow using reference implementations, phased prompts, and verification.
An end-to-end example of the workflow: plan, prompt docs, work notes, execution loop, and verification to create a new Helm chart from a known-good reference.
How to build and maintain a team prompt library that stays useful: structure, templates, contribution rules, and governance.
Minimal templates for plans, prompts, work notes, and checklists. Copy, adapt, and keep the workflow consistent.
How to make LLM-assisted development work on a team: handoff artifacts, shared prompt libraries, and review discipline.
How to measure whether LLM-assisted development is actually helping: practical metrics, baselines, and lightweight reporting.
Concrete stop rules for LLM-assisted development, plus common pitfalls and a recovery checklist when things go sideways.
Practical data-handling rules for LLM-assisted development: what never to paste, how to sanitize, and how to verify you didn't leak secrets.
Model choice is an engineering decision: match capability to task complexity, upgrade when stuck, and avoid stale vendor claims.
How to scale LLM-assisted development from a 1-day task to multi-week work: sub-phasing, parallelization, and repo hygiene.
