WebRun checks every Castr 24/7 looping channel each hour for one that's stopped streaming or is showing an error, tracking how long it's been down. It logs the incident on Trello and posts a Microsoft Teams alert naming the channel, so a dropped 24/7 stream gets caught and fixed within the hour instead of running dark unnoticed.

Questions, answered
Does it restart the channel automatically?
No. WebRun only detects and reports the outage. Restarting the stream in Castr is done by your team.
Does it alert every hour a channel is down?
It posts when a channel goes down and tracks it on Trello until resolved, rather than repeating the same alert every single check.
What counts as down?
A channel that's stopped streaming or is showing an error in Castr, based on the channel's own live status.
