Alert Reference Documentation
For a freely available resource, I found GitLab’s Runvbooks a good example to strive towards. But this is the output of a large team and several years. My advice is to just start with something simple.

Is a runbook what I’m looking for?
GitLab puts everything in a git repo in markdown. A single repo that contains a few different things. All of the production alerts are sourced from there. This makes it possible to review alerts and runbook changes in the same code review.

ChatCraft Adventures #10
Currently, ChatCraft supports Mermaid rendering. This feature request involves adding support for nomnoml rendering. Nomnoml is similar to Mermaid, in that they're both used in generating uml diagrams.

Have you considered adding support for mermaid.js in the markdown? I tried including some mermaid.js in a `mo.md` invocation, but it didn't render the diagram :-)

This feels like the LaTeX version of Mermaid.js [0]. I can do anything with it, but I gotta learn a lot of new syntax. So, really cool! Gonna have to dig into this.
