SuperPlane - open source DevOps control plane
Hey HN! We're Marko and Darko, building SuperPlane with a small team. SuperPlane is an open source DevOps control plane for running event-driven workflows. It works across the tools teams already use like Git, CI/CD, incident response, observability, infra, notifications, etc. You can think of SuperPlane as 'n8n/Zapier for DevOps'. How do we do DevOps today? For many teams it's a mix of brittle scripts, one-off CI jobs, bespoke GitOps, and manual approvals scattered across channels. Pipelines are often the only workflow engine available, but they’re not a great fit when a workflow…
In plain words
SuperPlane is an open source DevOps control plane that runs event-driven workflows across tools teams already use, including Git, CI/CD, incident response, observability, and notifications. It addresses limitations of traditional CI pipelines by handling workflows that span multiple repositories, require human approval, or run over extended periods. The platform integrates scattered DevOps processes—scripts, jobs, and manual approvals—into a unified system for modeling and executing complex DevOps workflows.

Hey HN! We're Marko and Darko, building SuperPlane with a small team. SuperPlane is an open source DevOps control plane for running event-driven workflows. It works across the tools teams already use like Git, CI/CD, incident response, observability, infra, notifications, etc. You can think of SuperPlane as 'n8n/Zapier for DevOps'. How do we do DevOps today? For many teams it's a mix of brittle scripts, one-off CI jobs, bespoke GitOps, and manual approvals scattered across channels. Pipelines are often the only workflow engine available, but they’re not a great fit when a workflow needs to span multiple repos/tools, wait for humans, or run over hours and days. Previously we built a CI/CD company Semaphore so we've seen it first-hand. SuperPlane gives you a place to model these workflows as a system: connect your tools, define how events flow, and get a complete, queryable execution history for debugging, audit, and shared understanding. Examples of what you can do with SuperPlane today: - Cross-tool automation with guardrails: coordinate releases with approvals, time windows, checks, and rollback paths. - Human-in-the-loop operations: pause for sign-off, collect decisions, and resume where you left off. - Incident and on-call workflows: pull context from multiple systems, fan out notifications, and keep a work log. - Glue work you don't want to re-build: webhooks, retries, routing, payload transforms, and a unified run history. See pre-built examples in the docs: https://docs.superplane.com/get-started/example-use-cases/ Project status: - Self-hosted only right now, alpha release. Apache 2. - Integrates with GitHub, OpenAI, Dash0, PagerDuty, Slack, Cloudflare, Semaphore, AWS Lambda, SMTP, webhooks. Much more planned. Links: - GitHub repo: https://github.com/superplanehq/superplane - Docs: https://docs.superplane.com Curious to hear your take, especially: 1. What's the first DevOps workflow you’d want to encode? 2. Which missing integrations matter most to you (eg GitLab, Rootly, Kubernetes, Datadog, Terraform, etc)? We’ll be in the comments. Thanks for reading!

Hey HN! I wanted to share something I built over the last few weeks: isometric.nyc is a massive isometric pixel art map of NYC, built with nano banana and coding agents. I didn't write a single line of code. Of course no-code doesn't mean no-engineering. This project took a lot more manual labor than I'd hoped! I wrote a deep dive on the workflow and some thoughts about the future of AI coding and creativity: http://cannoneyed.com/projects/isometric-nyc
