Synthetic Monitoring Setup Skill for Consecutive Failure Alerts
Define probes for an owned service and verify a consecutive-failure threshold and a recovery event.
中文Install in Claude Code
Use your local service and a scheduled probe tool. The example sends events only to a local test log.
- Get the complete `plugins/performance/synthetic-monitoring-setup/skills/setting-up-synthetic-monitoring` directory from the pinned GitHub commit.
- Copy it into the target project's `.claude/skills/`. Check `.claude/skills/setting-up-synthetic-monitoring/SKILL.md`, start Claude Code at the project root, and call `/setting-up-synthetic-monitoring`.
Example task
Return 200 from /catalog, then return 503 for three probes, then restore 200. Configure the alert threshold at three consecutive failures.What to check
The first two failures increment the count. The third emits an alert event, and recovery produces its own event.

Frequently asked question
Is alerting on every individual failure better?
Choose a threshold based on the service objective. Consecutive failures help avoid noise from short-lived network interruptions.
