Upptime. Is an open source uptime monitor that runs on GitHub Actions and stores status in the repo itself.

Summary

Garden stance: We assess Upptime for our estate.

Key points: | Topic | Notes | |——-|——–| | Deploy | Fork template repo, enable Actions and Pages, configure targets in config YAML | | Data model | Commit history and issues as the incident record; graphs generated in-repo | | Auth | Public probes only; secrets limited to GitHub token scopes for Actions |

Practices: Useful as a reference pattern for “monitoring as code” on GitHub. Pair with real Grafana alerting when downtime must wake an on-call rotation.
