Problem: Engineering teams waste hours manually reviewing PRs for security vulnerabilities, infrastructure misconfigurations, and test gaps before each release — leading to missed issues, delayed deployments, and production incidents. Solution: AutoRelease Guard automates the entire release validation pipeline using 4 specialized IBM Bob agents running in parallel: - sec-auditor: Scans for OWASP vulnerabilities, dependency CVEs, and secrets - infra-validator: Validates Dockerfiles, K8s manifests, Helm charts, and CI/CD configs - test-synthesizer: Detects coverage gaps and auto-generates missing tests - pr-artifact-gen: Produces release notes, rollback runbooks, and deploy checklists Target Users: SRE teams, DevOps engineers, and release managers at enterprises running polyglot microservice backends. Uniqueness: Unlike static linters, this pipeline reasons about blast radius, rollback cost, and compliance gates — producing a single, auditable release-readiness.json with a clear GO/NO-GO verdict. It integrates natively into GitHub Actions CI and enforces non-negotiable compliance gates (SARIF 2.1.0, CIS benchmarks, K8s security policies).
