Turn a manual troubleshooting guide into a library of CREs

We have a technical guide that walks through a specific set of reliability issues. Your task is to reproduce the issues and break them down into a structured set of CREs that can be shared with the community and used by preq to automate problem detection.

This a great opportunity to get hands-on experience with increasingly popular technologies.

📌 What you’ll do

• Read the guides
• Pick at least 10 issues to reproduce
• Extract and document multiple CREs based on the key failure modes, signals, and remediations described
• Submit them in the Prequel CRE format following the structure of this repo.

✅ What we’re looking for

• At least 10 high-quality CREs with reproductions

🏆 Award
