No rip-and-replace. Poros Ops connects read-only first, and each automation is switched on separately. Here is what it reads, what it can do, and what always stays with a person.
Proven in production with the systems named below.
Other systems: tell us what you run. Availability depends on the system's access options.
Watches reads and tells the right person. Changes nothing.
Drafts prepares the work. A person approves.
Acts does the work, then re-reads to confirm it landed.
