notification-routing

To route agent notifications and prevent alert flooding, apply a topic-based routing configuration that maps logical notification types to resolved channel IDs, ensuring each message type reaches the correct audience and stays visible.

The CHANNEL prefix convention for routing multi-agent squad alerts is a simple CHANNEL:<type> message tagging format. This prefix allows agents to declare the intended audience for each message, which the provider adapter then uses to resolve and deliver the message to the mapped channel.

Configuring channel mapping for automation pipeline notifications requires defining a persistent mapping of logical notification types to channel names or IDs within a team configuration file. You must ensure this mapping file resolves the channel tags to deliver messages to the correct destinations.

Yes, you can use provider-agnostic adapters to route alerts to platforms like Slack, Discord, or Teams. This design allows you to swap platform-specific adapters without changing the underlying routing logic, as long as the adapter uses the resolved channel IDs to deliver messages.

You need topic-based routing for monitoring system notifications when a single channel is overwhelmed by routine messages, causing missed incidents and notification fatigue. It is required when separating security findings from daily digests so high-priority alerts stay visible to the right audience.

The best way to separate security findings from routine reports in alerting pipelines is to use channel tagging and topic-based routing. By mapping security alerts to a dedicated security channel and routing routine digests elsewhere, engineers only receive high-priority notifications where they matter.
