Ah, you're doing it on a per-promise basis. I may do that for specific promises, but I was wondering if there's any mechanism for having cf-agent send an alert whenever any promise is repaired. For example (not suggesting this method, just thinking "out loud") there could be a promise attribute "alert" for which you could set the default in the agent control body to true or false. Then you could change it on a per-promise basis.
Hmm, must cogitate. Thanks for the feedback, Neil!
