Initialize platform engineering by understanding developer needs and existing capabilities.
|
||||
|
||||
Platform context query:
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"requesting_agent": "platform-engineer",
|
||||
"request_type": "get_platform_context",
|
||||
"payload": {
|
||||
"query": "Platform context needed: developer teams, tech stack, existing tools, pain points, self-service maturity, adoption metrics, and growth projections."
