 ## Experimental features
 
+### Termination watcher
+
+This feature is in early stage and therefore disabled by default.
+
+The termination watcher is currently watching for spot termination notifications. The module is only taken events into account for instances tagged with `ghr:environment` by default when deployment the module as part of one of the main modules (root or multi-runner). The module can also be deployed stand-alone, in that case the tag filter needs to be tunned.
+
+- Logs: The module will log all termination notifications. For each warning it will look up instance details and log the environment, instance type and time the instance is running. As well some other details.
+- Metrics: Metrics are disabled by default, this to avoid costs. Once enabled a metric will be created for each warning with at least dimensions for the environment and instance type. THe metric name space can be configured via the variables. The metric name used is `SpotInterruptionWarning`.
+
+#### Log example
+
+Below an example of the the log messages created.

 ### Queue to publish workflow job events
 
 This queue is an experimental feature to allow you to receive a copy of the wokflow_jobs events sent by the GitHub App. This can be used to calculate a matrix or monitor the system.
