Welcome to CronBeacon
CronBeacon monitors your scheduled jobs, cron tasks, and background processes. It detects two kinds of problems:
- Failed jobs — your job ran but reported an error
- Missing jobs — your job never ran at all (the dangerous silent failures)
When something goes wrong, CronBeacon creates an incident and sends you an alert with context — not just a red badge.
How it works
- Create a monitor — define a name, cron schedule, and grace period
- Send check-ins — append a curl call to your cron job
- Get alerted — CronBeacon detects failures and missing jobs automatically
