This is the description your AI agent reads to decide when to run this skill — the better it matches your request, the more reliably it fires.
Hourly cron-postmortem sweep — scans launchd job logs for failure signatures and emits Drift incidents for routing through the incident pipeline.Key capabilities
- →Scan launchd job logs
- →Detect cron failure signatures
- →Emit Drift incident records
- →Reset status on job recovery
How it works
The skill runs an hourly sweep of launchd logs, matches output against known failure signatures, and emits incidents to the Drift pipeline.
Inputs & outputs
When to use drift-watcher
- →Monitoring cron job health
- →Reporting recurring failures
- →System-level task observability
About drift-watcher
Monitors launchd job output for specific failure signatures, triggering incident reports for the Drift pipeline to facilitate system observability.
Hourly cron-postmortem sweep — scans launchd job logs for failure signatures and emits Drift incidents for routing through the incident pipeline.
When not to use it
- →When monitoring non-launchd tasks
- →When the Drift incident pipeline is unavailable
Prerequisites
Limitations
- →Limited to hourly execution schedule
- →Requires access to specific plist files
How it compares
It automates the postmortem detection process for cron jobs rather than relying on manual log inspection.
