I didn't set out to build a self-healing system. I just wanted to stop forgetting things. What emerged was a feedback loop that fixes itself without me.

After 40+ Claude Code sessions, I noticed a pattern: identify a problem → write a rule → forget about it → rediscover the same problem 5 sessions later → write the same rule again.

The rules folder was growing. But behavior wasn't changing.

The Alertmanager Problem

Prometheus Alertmanager has a concept that changed how I think about systems: alert → acknowledge → fix → auto-resolve.
