Watch the status pages of the tools we use
An alert when a service you depend on has an incident or planned maintenance, with the parts affected.
- On a schedule: Every 15 minutes
What it does
The task
Open the status pages of these services: services. Find each incident and each planned maintenance that is new or changed since the last run. Ignore the parts of a service that we do not use: ignore. For each item, send the service, the parts affected, the status, the start time and the latest update, with the link. Send nothing when no status changed.
- It works in any status page, in the workspace you pick, and signs in with passwords from your Cuiar vault.
- As a routine it runs every 15 minutes (cron
*/15 * * * *).
What you give it
| Blank | What to give | Example |
|---|---|---|
| services | The services and their status page links | GitHub, Stripe, Cloudflare, Slack |
| ignore | Parts of those services that you do not use | GitHub Codespaces, Stripe Terminal |
