Sigabrt.dev Launches Cronjob Monitoring Service with SSH TUI
Key points
- Monitors cronjobs by expecting a URL ping upon script completion.
- Sends email alerts if pings are missed according to a defined schedule.
- Features an SSH TUI for real-time status and event monitoring.
- Offers a free tier with 10 heartbeats and no credit card required.

Cronjob Monitoring Mechanism
Sigabrt.dev provides a service to monitor cronjobs and other scheduled scripts. Users configure their scripts to ping a unique URL upon successful completion. If this ping does not arrive within the expected schedule, the service sends an email notification to the user.
Integration and Setup
Integrating with Sigabrt.dev involves adding a simple curl command to the end of a script. This method requires no agents, external libraries, or credentials to be embedded within the script itself. Users define the expected reporting frequency and a forgiveness period for each monitored job.
SSH Terminal User Interface
The service includes an SSH-based Terminal User Interface (TUI). After adding an SSH public key in their settings, users can connect to view the status, schedule, and recent events for all their monitored endpoints directly from their terminal. This TUI currently supports read-only operations.
Service Tiers and Availability
Sigabrt.dev offers a free tier that includes 10 heartbeats without requiring a credit card. Paid tiers provide unlimited endpoints, unlimited heartbeats, and 90 days of history. The service is in its early stages, with future changes and expanded functionality anticipated based on user feedback.
