Watch for a known failure

Describe a failure pattern once, and every new run is checked for it.

Turn a failure you have found into a scenario. Alloy checks each new mission for it, and searches past runs too, so you see how often it happens and whether a fix worked.

When to use it

  • You found a failure and want to know if it comes back.
  • You shipped a fix and want proof it worked.
  • You want to find every log where something specific happened.

How to do it

  1. Go to Scenarios and click Create. The agent opens in the chat panel.
  2. Describe the pattern in plain words: "the front-left foot touches down more than 30 ms early".
  3. The agent agrees a precise definition with you, then creates the scenario.
  4. Choose how far back to search. By default, Alloy checks the previous 7 days, up to 90 days.
  5. Open the scenario to see each match, with the mission, the time and the reason.

You can also ask from any investigation: "watch for this on every new run".

Example

Fictional example.

After the QP-07 stair slip, the engineer creates the scenario "early front-left touch-down on a step edge". It finds 4 matches in the past week, all on release 5.3. After the fix ships, new runs show no matches.

Tips

  • Describe what the data shows, not the cause.
  • Keep one pattern per scenario.
