Continuumship
Menu

For platform and engineering-excellence leads

Continuumship is not a process. It is the engine that runs yours.

Design the flow in the Studio or write it in your repository. Your pipelines, jobs and deploys become steps. Guardrails hold across every team, and your own agent manages it all over MCP.

Every Area on its template, the organisation’s rules inherited under lock.

What you tell us

The golden path is a wiki page.

  • “Everyone copies my pipeline, then changes it.”

    The template spreads. A few months later forty projects run forty variants, and nobody can say which of them still has the security scan.

  • “Our policy is a document nobody reads.”

    Two approvals before production is written down. Whether it held last quarter is a question for a spreadsheet and a week of your time.

  • “I can't try a process change safely.”

    Every change to the process lands on live work. You find out what it would have blocked on the day it blocks something.

How Continuumship answers

Your process, with your tools as its steps.

The SDLC Studio

One definition, edited as a canvas, an outline or code, or drafted by describing how your team ships. Versions, comparison and a replay over your history come before anything is published.

  • Steps of eight kinds, and reusable subflows
  • A candidate runs in shadow beside the enforced version

Your tools as steps

A Jira transition, a GitLab pipeline, a Jenkins job, an Argo CD sync — each one a step in the flow, each answering in one of eight support states.

  • Your pipeline's jobs mapped to the checks they answer
  • Nothing rebuilt to fit the flow

Guardrails and definitions as code

Rules no team can remove, tried in shadow first. Flows, rules, routing and budgets live in your repository; your own agent proposes over MCP, and a person decides.

  • Every change is a change set, decided before it applies
  • Drift shown the moment it appears

How to start

Start with one Area, in shadow.

Your teams keep working as they do. By the fourth week you have the process as it really runs, and what your target flow would have asked of it.

  1. Week 0 · Connect

    Connect the tracker, the code host, your pipelines and one observability source with read-only scopes. Map the team to an Area.

  2. Week 1 · History and discovery

    History is read back. The process the team really follows is discovered, with its coverage and its common variants.

  3. Week 2 · Confirm and shadow

    The team's lead confirms the discovered flow. You draft the target flow and its guardrails and put them in shadow.

  4. Weeks 3–4 · Shadow on live work

    Shadow evaluation runs on live work. We read the adoption report together, and you decide what to enforce.

Questions platform leads ask

Is the flow ours, or a fixed workflow?

Yours. The flow templates are starting points; after that, the flow is your definition, in a documented schema. You write the stages, steps, approvals and subflows, and the Studio validates them against the same contract the engine runs.

How does a definition get from our repository into force?

Your pipeline syncs it by its own identity, against a trust that names which kinds and scopes that repository may define. Every sync is a change set with a plan. An edit made in the product becomes a merge request in your repository.

What if a team removes the security step?

It cannot. A guardrail injects a required step, locked, into every flow it applies to. The team's flow did not write it and cannot remove it, and every evaluation is recorded and explained.

Design how your company ships software.

Start with a thirty-day shadow pilot on one Area: bring your pipelines as steps, put your guardrails in shadow, and read what they would have done.
