Self-Healing

A system's ability to detect and fix errors without human intervention.

Why it matters

In production, things break at 3 AM. Self-healing systems detect failures, attempt fixes, and alert humans only when automatic repair fails — reducing downtime and on-call burden.

In practice

Our error-trigger workflow (AL-ERR-001) catches failures across all 13 workflows, attempts automatic retry, and sends a Telegram alert only if the retry fails.
