📖About & Usage

About

LLM Provider Health Watch is a droid that quietly checks whether every LLM provider lane is still working — so your conversations don't suddenly fail with an `insufficient_quota` error because an account ran dry or a service went down. It reads health‑status latches every 15 minutes, and once a day it makes one tiny probe call per API‑key provider (like a single‑token request) to verify the lane is really alive. If a lane is dead, it sends exactly one critical alert via the shared alert bus and marks the outage flagged, so the right people know immediately.

The droid never probes the Claude CLI lane (that lane is fleet‑disconnected by a standing policy), and it resets the alert latch automatically the first time the provider answers successfully again. It always reports a summary of what it found in the run‑audit summary, which feeds into tools like Audit Scorecard and Process Monitoring. All its checks run on a Scheduled Processes cadence, so no human has to remember to verify account balances.

LLM Provider Health Watch is owned by Hermione and is not a one‑off — it’s one of 209 identical droids in the unnamed `(none)` family that many agents run, including Carol, Hermione, Odin, and others. Because it calls an LLM for that daily probe, it is not pure software: it relies on Claude (model unspecified) to perform the tiny test call, which is the very thing it’s guarding.
