* feat(backend): dry-run endpoint for draft analyze rules (rule authoring)
POST /api/rules/analyze/dryrun evaluates a DRAFT analyze rule against one
session's events and returns a full diagnostic trace: per-condition
matched/evidence (incl. per-eventType occurrence counts), per-factor
confidence breakdown, verdict, and the would-be MatchedConditions map for
{{token}} interpolation preview. Persists nothing: no RuleResult row, no
session-status change, no notifications.
- RuleEngine.DryRun.cs: DryRunRuleAsync / DryRunEvaluate share the exact
evaluators (EvaluatePrecondition/EvaluateCondition/EvaluateConfidenceFactor)
with the production path but evaluate ALL conditions instead of breaking on
the first failed required one; parity with EvaluateRule is pinned by tests.
- DryRunAnalyzeRuleFunction: TenantAdminOrGlobalReader (read-in-effect POST),
GA/GlobalReader cross-tenant via session tenant resolution, 1 MB body cap,
structural draft validation (unknown source/operator, correlation without
joinField, invalid regex, non-evaluable confidenceFactor DSL) with
actionable error messages.
- EndpointAccessPolicyCatalog: register the new route.
- RuleEngineDryRunTests: trace semantics, production parity matrix,
side-effect freedom (VerifyNoOtherCalls), draft validation matrix.

* feat(mcp): rule-authoring resources — guide, schemas, guardrails
Deterministic authoring context for customer AIs, replacing chunked
search_docs retrieval for rule creation: get_resource (and the MCP-protocol
resources) now serve
- rule_authoring_guide: hand-written, complete authoring knowledge (collector
types, triggers, condition sources, operators, confidence model incl. the
exact factor-condition DSL shapes, {{token}} interpolation order, guardrail
matching semantics, pitfalls, validate->dry-run workflow)
- rule_schemas: the JSON Schemas (2020-12) for gather + analyze rules
- rule_guardrails: the on-device collection allowlists
Schemas + guardrails are generated into rule-authoring.generated.ts by a new
combine.js emitter (same pattern as the web guardrails mirror; rules/ stays
the single source of truth and CI guardrails-in-sync guards the file).
rule-authoring-drift.test.ts additionally pins generated == repo source,
guide enums == schema enums, and the get_resource size cap.

* feat(mcp): validate_rule + test_analyze_rule tools and author-rule prompt
Closes the authoring loop for customer AIs: draft -> validate -> dry-run
against a real session -> iterate -> create in the portal.
- validate_rule (MCP-local, no backend call): ajv 2020-12 validation against
the baked schemas, guardrail pre-flight mirroring the agent matching
semantics (hive-stripped segment-bounded registry/file prefixes,
whitespace-bounded WMI, exact commands, /-bounded event log channels, hard
blocks), and semantic lint for schema-valid-but-dead rules (unreachable
threshold, non-evaluable factor DSL, unknown eventTypes, unanchored
not_regex allowlists, unresolvable {{tokens}}, trigger cross-fields,
outputEventType conventions/collisions).
- test_analyze_rule: calls the new POST /api/rules/analyze/dryrun and adds
the {{token}}-interpolated explanation/remediation preview via the
existing interpolate-rule-template.
- author-rule MCP prompt guiding scenario -> resources -> draft -> validate
-> dry-run.
- Both tools are visible to every role (backend enforces
TenantAdminOrGlobalReader on the dryrun route); catalog snapshot updated.
- deps: ajv + ajv-formats promoted to direct dependencies.

* docs(okf): rule authoring surface concept doc
docs/rules/rule-authoring-surface.md: the AI-assisted authoring stack
(deterministic MCP resources via combine.js baking, MCP-local validate_rule
layers, the dry-run trace twin with its parity + side-effect invariants, and
what is deliberately absent); registered in index.md, logged 2026-08-05.
Customer docs (rules/ai-assisted-rule-authoring.md + SUMMARY + FAQ entry) are
committed in the autopilotmonitor-docs repository separately.

AutopilotMonitor
Advanced monitoring and troubleshooting solution for Windows Autopilot deployments. Gain full visibility into every enrollment session with a detailed event timeline, fleet health dashboards, and session reporting. Define custom analysis rules to automatically detect issues and gather rules to collect targeted evidence. Retrieve diagnostics packages on demand, configure agent settings like auto-reboot behavior and automatic timezone adjustment — all managed centrally from the web dashboard.
Availability
Autopilot Monitor is publicly available — the Community plan is free. Sign in with your work account at autopilotmonitor.com; new organizations complete a short activation step after first sign-in.
Overview
Autopilot Monitor provides real-time tracking, intelligent diagnostics, and automated troubleshooting for Windows Autopilot enrollment processes. It consists of:
- Bootstrap Script — PowerShell script deployed via Intune that starts monitoring early in the enrollment process
- Monitoring Agent — Lightweight .NET application that collects telemetry and evidence during enrollment
- Backend API — Azure Functions-based ingestion and processing pipeline
- Web Dashboard — Next.js application for real-time monitoring and fleet analytics
