Tool Health

#

4 incidents in the last 24h (vs 1 yesterday)

Why this matters · Provider outages and degradations cause retry storms upstream. Tracking the 7-day shape catches flapping providers before they page you.

Tool health, 7 days ending 2026-06-16. Each row is one tool; each column is one UTC day. Green = operational, amber = degraded, red = outage, grey = no data.
