Crontinel

Crontinel is an outcome monitor for background jobs, cron schedules, and queues. It tracks whether a job actually produced the expected result, not just whether the process exited 0, and is built for developers running jobs through curl, Node, Python, Sidekiq, GitHub Actions, or Laravel.

A job posts an HTTP receipt to Crontinel's ingest endpoint with its command, exit code, timestamps, and optional outcome metrics such as a record count. Crontinel evaluates a separate outcome rule against that count on the server, and alerts by email when a run finishes but the rule fails, clearing the incident once a later receipt passes.

On Laravel, a Composer package attaches the receipt from the scheduler and adds queue depth and Horizon freshness, tracking supervisor status, queue depth per queue, oldest job age, and a rolling failed-job rate. Coding assistants such as Claude Code, Cursor, or Codex can read the same incident data over MCP.

The Free plan covers one connected app, five monitors per app, and seven days of run and monitor event history, at $0 per month. Starter, Pro, and Max paid plans are planned but not yet open for signup, and Slack and webhook alerts are not yet available on the public plan; alerts are sent by email.

Use cases

• Catching a job that exits 0 but processes zero records
• Detecting a scheduler that silently stops firing after a deploy
• Monitoring Laravel Horizon supervisors and queues
• Catching webhook delivery failures and retry storms
