Automated Backup & Email Reporting

Live demo: device configuration backup pipeline with status reporting

This demo comes from a problem that is easy to ignore until the worst possible moment: backups look fine right up until you need one and discover the process was inconsistent. I built this workflow to connect to devices over SSH, deal with awkward CLI behavior, archive the configs, and send a simple morning report showing what succeeded, failed, or was skipped. The value was not just in saving files. It was in making gaps visible before a restore was needed.
