Crontinel: open-source monitoring for cron jobs, queues, and AI agents

Original: Your cron is lying to you. Here's how to catch silent failures.

Short summary

Crontinel is an open-source MIT-licensed tool for monitoring cron jobs, queue workers, and AI agents by hooking into framework events rather than requiring per-task instrumentation. It detects missed runs, crashed workers, queue backpressure, and agent tool-call loops within 60 seconds, with alert routing to Slack, PagerDuty, and other channels. SDKs are available for Laravel, Node, Python, Go, Rust, and PHP, with a self-hosted option and a cloud dashboard convenience layer.

  • •Open-source cron, queue, and AI agent monitoring via framework event hooks
  • •60-second detection for missed runs, crashed workers, and queue backpressure
  • •MIT licensed with SDKs for six languages; self-host or use cloud dashboard

Generated with AI, which can make mistakes.
