## About Instatus with LuumenAI

Connect Instatus and Luumen can read your status pages, components, incidents, and maintenance windows while you work in the terminal. Ask what customers currently see, or which components are degraded. When it is time to communicate, Luumen drafts the incident, the update, or the component change and shows it to you before anything goes public.

## Example tools

Read-only (7 in total):

- `INSTATUS_GET_COMPONENT` — Get the current health and configuration of one component on an Instatus status page.
- `INSTATUS_GET_INCIDENT` — Get one Instatus incident with its affected components and update history.
- `INSTATUS_GET_MAINTENANCE` — Get one Instatus maintenance with its schedule, affected components, automation settings, and update history.
- `INSTATUS_LIST_COMPONENTS` — List components and their current health for one Instatus status page, including child components where present.
- `INSTATUS_LIST_INCIDENTS` — List incidents for an Instatus status page, optionally including or excluding lifecycle statuses.
- `INSTATUS_LIST_MAINTENANCES` — List scheduled and historical maintenances for an Instatus status page.

## Frequently asked questions

### How does LuumenAI connect to Instatus?

Authorize once with API token. Luumen lists the scopes each action needs before you approve the connection, and credentials never appear in the chat.

### Can LuumenAI change things in Instatus on its own?

Read actions answer immediately. Anything that writes is shown as a plan and requires approval by default, including the 6 actions classified as destructive. Administrators configure that per tool.

### Is there an audit trail?

Every call to Instatus — read or write, approved or declined — is recorded with the actor, the input, and the result.
