Channel Mapping
Map Teams channels to NetClaw notification types:
### Teams Channel Map (configure in TOOLS.md)
- #netclaw-alerts → P1/P2 critical alerts, CVE exposure
- #netclaw-reports → Health reports, audit results, reconciliation
- #netclaw-changes → Change request updates, completion notices
- #network-general → P3/P4 notifications, topology updates
- #incidents → Active incident investigation threads
Integration with Other Skills
- pyats-health-check — Post health check summaries to Teams
- pyats-security — Alert on CVE exposure and failed security audits
- netbox-reconcile — Post drift detection results to Teams

Rules
- Never post credentials or secrets to Teams channels
- Always include severity level in alert messages
- Thread incident updates — reply to the original message, don't create new top-level posts
- Respect channel purpose — alerts go to alert channels, reports go to report channels
- Include actionable context — every alert should say what happened and what to do next
