Worker Health Monitoring

Heartbeat-based health monitoring for background workers.

When to Use This Skill

• Monitoring background job workers
• Detecting offline or stuck workers
• Tracking worker performance degradation
• Calculating failure rates and latency percentiles

Core Concepts

Workers can fail in subtle ways:

• Offline - No heartbeat received
• Degraded - Slow or occasionally failing
• Unhealthy - High failure rate
• Stuck - Started but never completed
