AUDIT · AUTOMATED RESPONSE

Automated response. Backlog burn-down. CVE-day reflexes.

When something slips through Prevent — or shouldn't have ever been left to a human — Workflows take over. Heeler validates fixes in a sandbox, opens merge-ready PRs, and routes anything ambiguous to the right reviewer.

The backlog grew faster than the team.

Most security backlogs aren't unfixable — they're un-triagable. Each finding needs a human to confirm it matters, find the owner, write the fix, and submit a PR that doesn't break tests. Workflows do that work without the human in the middle.

WHAT WORKFLOWS DO

Three motions. Continuous output.

01 · BURN DOWN

Backlog burn-down

Continuous, deterministic remediation of the existing backlog. Heeler ranks findings by real exposure, picks the safest upgrade path, validates the fix in a sandbox, runs CI, and opens a merge-ready PR. Every day. Every repo.

02 · REACT

Emergent CVE response

The moment new CVE research lands, Workflows match it against your dependency graph and runtime exposure. If you're affected, a validated remediation PR is in flight in minutes — not the week it takes a human to read the advisory.

03 · RECOVER

Slip-through remediation

When a guardrail was in Observe and something landed, or a new attack pattern emerges, Workflows close the loop — retroactively remediating across the codebase without a tribal-knowledge hunt.

How a workflow actually runs.

Five steps. All deterministic. All auditable.

STEP 01

Detect

Context engine identifies a finding — newly emerged CVE, slip-through after Observe, or a queued backlog item.

STEP 02

Prioritize

Score against runtime exposure, ownership, and business context. Not raw CVSS. The score reflects actual risk to your actual services.

STEP 03

Select

Pick the safest upgrade path or remediation pattern from Heeler Agent Skills. Org-specific overrides and approved-package lists apply.

STEP 04

Validate

Apply the fix in a sandbox, run the project's tests, iterate until CI passes. No LLM-guessed patches that quietly break things.

STEP 05

Ship

Open a merge-ready PR with full context and validation evidence; route to the right reviewer based on ownership.
