Configure how the SLO creator agent generates and activates SLOs.

To turn automatic SLO generation on or off and manage email notifications for generated SLOs, see Manage SLO creator agent settings.

Note: Property changes apply only to newly generated SLOs. Existing SLOs aren't recalculated.

sn_ai_agents_slo.commitment_buffer

  • Description

    Adds a buffer to an availability commitment when the agent calculates the SLO target. Applies only when the agent finds an availability commitment.

  • Values

    Default: 0.09

  • When to adjust

    Increase the buffer to set stricter SLO targets and provide earlier warning before the service falls below its availability commitment. Decrease it if the generated targets are too strict.

sn_ai_agents_slo.create_slo_mode

  • Description

    Controls if the agent activates generated SLOs automatically or saves them as drafts.

  • Values

    Default: auto_activate

    Other value: draft

  • When to adjust

    Use draft to review and edit generated SLOs before activation. Use auto_activate when generated SLOs can take effect without review. Error budget notifications begin after activation.

sn_ai_agents_slo.linked_alerts_cap

  • Description

    Limits the number of critical alerts associated with an incident that the agent considers when generating SLOs.

  • Values

    Default: 5

    Maximum: 10

  • When to adjust

    Increase the value when incidents commonly produce more relevant critical alerts than the default includes. Decrease it when numerous alerts represent the same underlying issue.

sn_ai_agents_slo.linked_outages_cap

  • Description

    Limits the number of outages associated with an incident that the agent considers when generating SLOs.

  • Values

    Default: 5

    Maximum: 10

  • When to adjust

    Increase the value when a single incident commonly spans more outage records than the default includes. Decrease it when multiple outage records represent the same underlying issue.

sn_ai_agents_slo.orphan_alert_window_days

  • Description

    Specifies how far back the agent looks for critical alerts that aren't associated with an incident when generating SLOs.

  • Values

    Default: 30

    Range: 7-90

  • When to adjust

    Use a shorter window when older alerts no longer reflect current service reliability. Use a longer window to account for less frequent or recurring alert patterns.

sn_ai_agents_slo.other_incident_window_days

  • Description

    Specifies how far back the agent looks for other P1 and P2 incidents associated with the service or CI when generating SLOs.

  • Values

    Default: 90

    Range: 30-180

  • When to adjust

    Use a shorter window to focus on recent conditions. Use a longer window to account for severe incidents that occur less frequently.
