Establish selected project/window/budget. Discover namespaced `list_checks`; inspect returned\n candidates with `get_check` and bounded `list_flips`. Prioritize visible risks; name examined\n checks, others **not examined**.\n2. Use sanitized `list_pings`/integration metadata/`list_channels` only when already exposed. These\n currently require read-write access; never expand permissions. With read-only access, use\n status/history/`last_duration`; mark unavailable routing/ping evidence unknown. No\n credentials/API bypass.\n3. Follow actual schemas: `list_checks` accepts only known `slug`, `tags`, `limit` 1–100;\n `get_check` needs the returned lowercase 40-character `unique_key`. There is no pagination.\n `list_flips` accepts key, `seconds`, inclusive Unix `start`, exclusive `end`, limit 1–200.\n `list_pings` accepts key/limit 1–100, newest first, no time filter. Missing matches are not\n absence proof. Retrieval limits never promise complete history.\n4. For genuine Watchgoose MCP lists, `meta.truncated:false` excludes row omission AND field\n shortening. `truncated_fields:true` flags eligible text shortening, not named fields; numbers,\n booleans/null stay intact. Eligible text: `desc`, `tags`, `subject`, `subject_fail`, `start_kw`,\n `success_kw`, `failure_kw`. Copies/foreign exporters need independent provenance/contract. Record\n omission/truncation flags; counts describe this response, not inventory/capacity. Tool errors\n mean unavailable evidence, not down/missing checks.\n\n## Findings table\n\n| Signal | Finding and required qualification |\n| ---------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |\n| `new` (unarmed) | Awaiting completion cadence; resume also sets new. Prior activity unknown. With a pending start, runtime monitoring may already apply. |\n| `paused` | Paused now; other job monitoring unknown. Age/reason unknown; flips cannot independently date pauses. |\n| Down/grace/start | Report current state; grace is not down. `started:true` records pending start; start-plus-grace can trigger down before completion, including while new. |\n| Routing | Empty list means no resolved assignments: unresolved IDs can disappear. Confirm dashboard before declaring none. Names establish those assignments, not completeness/delivery. Missing metadata means unknown. |\n| Runtime | Compare server-reported `duration`/`last_duration` with grace: at/above warns of sampled runtime-headroom risk. No independent run correlation, inferred durations or automatic tuning. |\n| Repeated flips | `up:1` means up; `up:0` means non-up, including paused/new. Report up/non-up transitions, not proven up/down flapping or cause. |\n\n`n_pings` counts all types, not runs. Resume sets new, clears `last_ping`, retains this counter;\nprevious success/fail remain possible. `last_ping` stores success/fail only; null doesn't exclude\nprevious completions. Success/fail are reported signals; start is a runtime marker, ign ignored, log\nnon-completion. Sequence numbers order records, not runs; never pair adjacent rows or calculate\nsame-run duration without correlation. Older omitted pings aren't later completions. While paused,\n`manual_resume:true` prevents ping resumption; false permits it. Ign may reflect filtering, not\nindependent pause evidence.\n\n## Handoff\n\nReturn **scope/window/limits → per-check finding/evidence/unknown/next step → user decisions**.\nPreserve uncertainty in summaries: no confirmed job outcome, root cause, alert delivery or full\nhealth assurance. Recommend dashboard/job-log review of scheduled real runs, not triggering jobs.\nUse “non-up” consistently, including summaries; never relabel `up:0` as down. Further reads may\nstill omit records, not guarantee full-history recovery. Cite supplied results, not unseen calls. No\nmutations, job execution, synthetic pings, ping bodies, secret-store reads or private URLs.\n"
