SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Deploys can pass CI yet fail in production due to console errors, broken pages, or performance regressions that only appear under real traffic and data. This skill helps you detect those issues within the first 10 minutes by continuously observing the live app and comparing results to a baseline.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Post-deploy monitoring: Watches a URL for console errors, page failures, and performance regressions over time.
  • Baseline comparison: Captures pre-deploy screenshots and metrics, then alerts only when changes persist across multiple checks.
  • Evidence-based alerts: When something degrades, it provides timestamps, page context, and screenshot evidence so you can act quickly.

Quick Start

Run canary monitoring for your deployed site by executing: /canary <url> --duration 10m.

FAQPage Schema
How do I monitor production for console errors and performance regressions after a deploy?

Post-deploy monitoring can be performed by continuously visiting a live URL, capturing screenshots, console errors, and performance timing, then comparing these against a pre-deploy baseline to detect regressions.

Why do my web pages pass CI but break in production under real traffic?

Web pages pass CI but break in production because real traffic and data trigger console errors, broken layouts, or performance regressions that only appear in the live environment, requiring continuous post-deploy monitoring to detect.

How do I prevent false positives when alerting on production web page health?

To prevent false positives in production web page health monitoring, use change-based alerting that enforces persistence across multiple consecutive checks before triggering an alert, comparing current page state to a baseline.

Can I use canary monitoring to capture screenshots and page content immediately after deployment?

Yes, canary monitoring captures screenshots, page content, console errors, and performance timing by repeatedly visiting a live URL and its selected pages to verify production behavior immediately after deployment.

What do I need to run post-deploy canary monitoring for web page health?

Running post-deploy canary monitoring requires a live URL to watch and baseline or pre-deploy reference data, which serves as the comparison point to detect new console errors and performance regressions.

What is the best way to catch web page regressions within the first 10 minutes of a production deploy?

The best way to catch web page regressions fast is running post-deploy canary monitoring that continuously observes the live app, capturing evidence like timestamps, page context, and screenshots when degradation persists.
