Automated Mode Report Failure Alerts
Every hour, WebRun opens Mode, checks scheduled reports and queries run in the last hour for failures, posts a Telegram alert naming the report and the error, and sends a Twilio text if the same report has failed more than once today.
How do I get alerted immediately when a Mode scheduled report fails?
WebRun checks Mode's scheduled reports and queries every hour, reading each run's status and any query error. A failure posts a Telegram alert naming the report and the error, and a report failing more than once the same day escalates to a Twilio text, so a broken scheduled report gets caught before someone opens a stale dashboard.
- Failed reports get a Telegram alert within the hour
- Repeatedly failing reports get a text escalation, not lost in the noise
- Recovered reports clear themselves from alerts automatically

Questions, answered
Will it re-run the report or fix the query on its own?
No. WebRun only reports the failure and escalates what's persistent. Re-running a report or fixing the underlying query is left to a human.
Why escalate to a text instead of just Telegram?
A single failure shows up in the regular Telegram alert. A report failing more than once the same day gets a text so a genuine pattern doesn't get missed.
What if the report recovers on the next scheduled run?
It checks the latest run status each hour, so a report that's back to succeeding drops out of both the alert and the escalation automatically.
