I just took a quick look at hub. I saw the example for datadog and pipedrive. Datadog has a script to post metrics. I cannot think of a situation where I would use a script like that, you would rather want it to be from the service itself or the agent. To me it sounds like an anti pattern too. But that's just me. Secondly, for pipedrive i see scripts add user etc. I think in enterprise setting i would use a platform like better cloud that specializes on saas user provisioning. The thing that you are missing and lot of platform in this space is that if you market as it as a devtool then it is not good enough, dev workflow looks very different and you are force fitting this. What has a more cohesion? Adding a script in git, clone and executing it via your machine/teleport/strongdm etc or your service, that makes debugging through stuff more difficult, completely unnatural experience. I think self hosting AWS like lambda is a bad idea because there is huge operational overhead at scale. If you position yourself as CRM alternative, then it makes sense for smaller orgs, but then my argument holds because the moment they become bigger they will transition out of upper platform. Openspec is actually not a differentiator here, there is core problem, when the org mature they invest in point solutions to solve particular issues. I mean well for windmill, may be you have a better insight that I dont have. I have been tracking this space for a while and these are just opinions in the end and might be wrong.
