Ritual Service II

Goblin Containment

Small problems become large departments.

Locate and remove unauthorized tools, abandoned automations, duplicate systems, and minor operational entities living in shared drives.

Field Indicators

Signs You Need Professional Assistance

Your organization may require immediate assistance if several of these conditions are present—or if one of them has begun making decisions.

  • The same task is automated three different ways
  • No one knows who owns the chatbot
  • Removing one tool breaks an unrelated calendar
  • A workflow sends duplicate messages at 3:14 a.m.
  • “It just does that sometimes” is common in meetings

Scope of Work

What Goblin Containment Includes

01

Workflow Inspection

We map AI systems, automations, integrations, data connections, subscriptions, and informal rituals.

02

Tool Inventory

Every approved, redundant, abandoned, experimental, and spiritually questionable system is evaluated for ownership, cost, access, and goblin density.

03

Permission Review

We reduce broad permissions to what is actually required. This usually disappoints the goblins.

04

Automation Cleanup

Overlapping workflows, infinite loops, duplicate notifications, and undead processes are repaired or respectfully deleted.

05

Containment Documentation

We record what each goblin was, where it lived, what it affected, and whether it attempted negotiation.

Operating Principle

Do Not Promote the Goblins

When a broken workflow becomes familiar, companies stop questioning it. We remove disturbances before they become institutional knowledge.

Your AI System Does Not Need to Be Normal

It needs to be useful, controlled, secure, understandable, and prevented from making irreversible decisions without supervision.

For urgent containment failures, disconnect external tools before completing the form.
