Problem - The "Postman but watching" need. Poll endpoints on an interval and show status in a real UI, not a terminal.

Options:

  • Gatus - single Go binary, YAML config, sub-second intervals, status plus response time plus history plus alerting. Config-as-code.
  • Uptime Kuma - Node app, prettier click-configured UI, strong status pages.

Recommendation: Gatus. It matches the config-as-code taste and is the live version of what daily-operational already does with HTTP pings.

Origin: self-hosted chat sweep, 2026-05-21.
