# Pingwell

> Pingwell monitors websites and APIs from eight regions (uptime checks), watches scheduled jobs that ping it (heartbeats), publishes status pages, and alerts by email, Slack, Discord, Telegram, webhooks and PagerDuty. AI agents can set it up for a project through the MCP server at https://mcp.pingwell.dev/mcp.

## Docs

- [Getting started](https://pingwell.dev/docs): Sign in, add your first monitor and heartbeat, and choose where alerts go.
- [Set up with your agent](https://pingwell.dev/docs/agent-setup): Connect Claude Code, Cursor, Claude or ChatGPT to Pingwell and let it set up checks, heartbeats, a status page and alerts for your project.
- [MCP reference](https://pingwell.dev/docs/mcp): The Pingwell MCP server - its endpoint, how it authenticates, every tool and what it changes, how errors read, and how access is kept safe.
- [Heartbeat pings](https://pingwell.dev/docs/heartbeats): The ping API for cron jobs and workers - success, start, fail and exit codes, with curl, crontab and GitHub Actions examples.

- [Alert through PagerDuty](https://pingwell.dev/docs/pagerduty): Page on-call from Pingwell - the Events API v2 integration key, what opens and resolves an incident, severities, the test incident and key rotation.
- [Prometheus and Grafana](https://pingwell.dev/docs/prometheus): Scrape a workspace's monitors, heartbeats and incidents into Prometheus, with a scrape config and a Grafana dashboard to import.
- [Model checks](https://pingwell.dev/docs/model-checks): Monitor an LLM with your own API key - OpenAI-compatible APIs (Azure OpenAI included), Anthropic and Gemini - for errors, latency, the expected answer and the snapshot an alias resolves to.

## Optional

- [Full documentation](https://pingwell.dev/llms-full.txt): every page above in one plain-text file, followed by the setup skill.
