HookWatch
Unified monitoring for webhooks, cron jobs, and AI agent tool calls with automatic retries.
Overview
What is HookWatch?
HookWatch is a unified monitoring and observability platform designed for developers and small teams to manage the invisible parts of their infrastructure. It provides real-time monitoring, logging, and automatic retries for webhooks, cron jobs, and Model Context Protocol (MCP) tool calls for AI agents. By offering a centralized dashboard and a local-first CLI, HookWatch helps prevent silent failures, allows for easy debugging of payloads, and ensures reliable delivery of critical events from providers like Stripe, Shopify, and GitHub. It features smart buffering to capture webhooks during downtime and human-readable schedules for cron management.
