Check-in reliability

Seiri’s reliability model is push-based: your job must check in. Seiri alerts when the check-in is late or reports failure.

This is not outbound webhook delivery / retries to your servers.


What Seiri guarantees

  1. Accept check-ins on ping.seiri.app (HTTP) or {ref}@ping.seiri.app (email).
  2. Evaluate schedules for Periodic and Cron monitors against the grace period.
  3. Alert on miss / fail via your configured channels.
  4. Retain history for dashboard, webhook stats, SLA, and status-page automation.

What you must do

  • Ping after successful work (/success).
  • Optionally ping /fail on errors.
  • Keep ping timeouts short and swallow ping errors so monitoring never takes down the job.
  • Set grace period above your job’s p99 runtime to avoid flapping.

Missed vs failed
