What it does

Managing Maintenance Windows is an agent skill from latitude-dev/latitude-llm. Enables or disables Latitude production maintenance mode by redirecting all publicly exposed production services to the Better Stack status page. Use when asked to start, stop, toggle, verify, or prepare a maintenance window.

Its SKILL.md is about 800 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in DevOps & Cloud. It works with Pulumi. The repository describes itself as: Open-source observability for AI agents. Find where your agents fail, dispatch your coding agent to fix it, and verify the fix against real traces. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Prepare a maintenance window

Example prompts

  • “Use the managing-maintenance-windows skill to enable or disables Latitude production maintenance mode by redirecting all publicly exposed production…”
  • “/managing-maintenance-windows”

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Confirm the user wants all publicly exposed production services redirected.
  2. Confirm https://status.latitude.so/ is live and has the relevant Better Stack maintenance or incident notice.
  3. Run pulumi preview --stack production and check that the ALB HTTPS listener default action and all public host rules change from…
  4. Apply only after the user has approved the production change, unless they already explicitly asked to execute it.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 12e8591. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • pulumi
    • curl
    • mise

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • status.latitude.so
    • console.latitude.so
    • api.latitude.so
    • ingest.latitude.so
    • bull-board.latitude.so

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Managing Maintenance Windows loads about 802 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 64 tokens; SKILL.md has 309 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~64
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~802

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Managing maintenance windows

Use this skill when a user asks to enable, disable, verify, or prepare Latitude's production maintenance window.

What maintenance mode does

  • Maintenance mode is an ALB-level switch in infra/lib/alb.ts.
  • When enabled, all public production service hostnames redirect to https://status.latitude.so/: console.latitude.so, api.latitude.so, ingest.latitude.so, and bull-board.latitude.so.
  • The switch is controlled by the Pulumi production config key enableWebMaintenanceRedirect.
  • Do not implement this in apps/web: if a service is unhealthy, app-level redirects may not run.

Enable maintenance mode

From infra/:

bash
pulumi config set enableWebMaintenanceRedirect true --stack production
pulumi preview --stack production
pulumi up --stack production

Then verify from outside the VPC:

bash
curl -I https://console.latitude.so/
curl -I https://api.latitude.so/health
curl -I https://ingest.latitude.so/health
curl -I https://bull-board.latitude.so/

Expected result: all requests return an HTTP redirect with Location: https://status.latitude.so/.

Disable maintenance mode

From infra/:

bash
pulumi config rm enableWebMaintenanceRedirect --stack production
pulumi preview --stack production
pulumi up --stack production

Then verify:

bash
curl -I https://console.latitude.so/
curl -I https://api.latitude.so/health
curl -I https://ingest.latitude.so/health
curl -I https://bull-board.latitude.so/

Expected result: none of the requests redirects to https://status.latitude.so/. Services may return normal responses or auth redirects depending on the requested path.

Safety checklist

Before enabling:

  1. Confirm the user wants all publicly exposed production services redirected.
  2. Confirm https://status.latitude.so/ is live and has the relevant Better Stack maintenance or incident notice.
  3. Run pulumi preview --stack production and check that the ALB HTTPS listener default action and all public host rules change from forwarding to redirecting.
  4. Apply only after the user has approved the production change, unless they already explicitly asked to execute it.

Before disabling:

  1. Confirm the maintenance window is complete or the user explicitly asked to restore service.
  2. Run pulumi preview --stack production and check that the ALB HTTPS listener default action and all public host rules change from redirecting back to forwarding.
  3. Verify every public hostname after pulumi up.

Notes for agents

  • Use eval "$(mise env)" if local shell commands cannot find node, pnpm, or Pulumi-related tooling.
  • Do not change the hardcoded redirect target to an incident-specific URL. The reusable target is the status page root, https://status.latitude.so/.
  • If Pulumi credentials or stack access are unavailable, report the exact command the operator should run and do not fake success.
