Show HN: Sigabrt.dev – cronjob monitor with an SSH TUI

Read on sigabrt.devHN 78·34 comments

Summary

Sigabrt.dev offers a simple cron‑job heartbeat service: you add a curl to your script, and the service notifies you via email/ntfy if the ping is missed. It also provides an SSH‑based terminal UI to view endpoint status.

  • Add a single curl call at the end of a cron script to ping a sigabrt.dev endpoint.
  • Monitor endpoint status and history via an SSH TUI after uploading your public key.
  • Free tier provides 10 heartbeats; alerts are sent by email or ntfy on missed pulses.

Ops engineers who rely on cron jobs may appreciate a low‑overhead way to get alerted when a job fails.
