Healthchecks.io integration

Healthchecks.io is a cron job monitoring service. Receive alerts when scheduled jobs (cron, scheduled tasks, backups, batch processes) don't run on time. The Management API lets you list, create, update, pause, resume and delete checks, inspect pings and status flips, list integrations and badges programmatically.

What you can do with Healthchecks.io

Each of these is one operation on one endpoint, available both as a workflow step and as a tool an AI agent can call on its own. Nothing bundles several operations into one action, so what a run did stays readable afterwards.

Most endpoints run on the free plan. A few, mainly the ones that publish on your behalf, need a paid plan.

Healthchecks.io API rate limits

  • 100 requests per minute

These are the limits Healthchecks.io documents, not ones LiveContext measured. They can change and often depend on your plan, so check the Healthchecks.io documentation for current values.

Use Healthchecks.io from Claude Code, Cursor or Codex

Connect Healthchecks.io in LiveContext, create an API key in Settings, then add the LiveContext MCP server to your client. Its Healthchecks.io operations become tools the client can call, next to every other integration you connected.

Claude Code
claude mcp add --transport http livecontext https://livecontext.ai/mcp --header "X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY"
Codex (~/.codex/config.toml)

[mcp_servers.livecontext.http_headers]
"X-API-Key" = "YOUR_API_KEY"
Cursor, Claude Desktop and other JSON configs
