Hookpulse tools (22, 3 write)
write = sends, deletes, buys or postsapi_indexFreeFull index of the HookPulse API.
billingFreeFree plan, x402 prices and the trial offer: sign-up with a confirmed e-mail = 90 days without the usage paywall (`trial` field; with a session it shows the state).
contactFreeSupport. Agent without captcha → 402 $0.10 x402. After the 1st message: 429 + Retry-After (backoff).
create_endpointwrite actionFreeCreates a dead-man endpoint. Use cron+tz+grace_sec for a real schedule (mutually exclusive with interval_sec) or interval_sec for plain silence detection. max_duration_sec alerts when a run opened by /in/:id/start hangs. May return 402 x402 when it leaves the free tier.
create_guestwrite actionFreeCreates a guest token hp_…
delete_endpointwrite actionFreeRemoves the owner's endpoint.
get_endpointFreeStatus of one endpoint (use the endpoint token if you have it).
healthFreeLiveness.
import_crontabFreeReads a crontab and proposes one monitor per scheduled line. Without apply=1 nothing is written; the proposal says what was ignored and why. Passwords in the command are redacted.
ingest_keyFreeReturns (minting the first time) the key for /in/<key>/<slug>, where a ping creates its own monitor inside the free tier. Instruments a whole fleet with no setup call per job.
ingest_key_rotateFreeRotates the ingest key; the previous one stops creating monitors. Existing ones keep working.
list_endpointsFreeLists the guest's/session's endpoints.
list_eventsFreeLatest ingest pings.
list_templatesFreeIngest snippets and the JSON HookPulse POSTs on a miss.
ping_ingestFreeSimulates the cron: GET on /in/:id.
ping_slugFreePing that creates its own monitor on the first hit. Same slug = same monitor; 402 when the free tier is full, and then nothing is written.
pricingFreeCurrent public prices and free allowances; no charge.
signal_exit_codeFreeThe shell exit status: 0 behaves like a ping, 1-255 record the code as a failure.
signal_failFreeSays the run FAILED. The ingest never sends e-mail: the 5-minute cron turns it into an alert with reason `fail`, under the same one-per-24h cap.
signal_startFreeSays the run STARTED. Does not clear the dead-man clock: a routine that starts and hangs still becomes a miss. The next success records the duration.
status_feed_rotateFreeRotates the status feed token; the previous URL stops working.
status_feed_urlFreePublic URL (JSON and RSS) with the status of all the owner's endpoints.
