Cron jobs can phone home

Give a job a URL to ping. If the ping stops, statusloop opens an incident after the grace period. Simple intervals or a cron expression, in UTC.

A cron job that fails quietly is worse than a site that 500s, because nobody is looking. Healthchecks notice the silence.

  • The ping URL is https://app.statusloop.dev/ping/{slug}. GET, POST, and HEAD all count as a heartbeat, so curl, wget, or a worker can send it.
  • Schedules are either "expect a ping every N" or a five-field cron expression in UTC. New checks start at one day, with a ten-minute grace period.
  • Statuses are pending, up, late, and down. The check runs every 60 seconds. The detail view has the URL, a chart, and the event log.
