Automated UpCloud Server Resource Alerts
Every hour, WebRun opens the UpCloud Hub, checks every server's CPU, memory, and disk usage against the thresholds you set, creates a Trello card naming the server and which resource is stretched, and sends you a WhatsApp ping so a resource problem gets looked at before the server actually falls over.
How do I get warned before an UpCloud server runs out of resources?
Every hour, WebRun checks every UpCloud server's CPU, memory, and disk usage against the thresholds you set. It creates a Trello card naming the server and the stretched resource, and sends you a WhatsApp ping with a link to the card, so a resource problem gets looked at before the server actually falls over.
- A stretched server gets caught within the hour, not after it goes down
- Every alert names the exact resource and usage, not a vague warning
- A Trello card tracks the fix through to resolved instead of getting lost in chat

Secure by default
Connect once, stays signed in
WebRun signs in once and keeps each session in a persistent environment, so every run picks up right where it left off.
Every action is checked against this policy before it runs.
Questions, answered
Does it resize the server or add resources itself?
No. WebRun only reports which server and resource is stretched. Resizing a plan or adding resources always stays a decision you make in UpCloud.
How do I set the usage threshold?
You set a percentage for CPU, memory, and disk during setup, and WebRun compares every hourly reading against exactly that number.
Will I get repeated pings for the same problem?
The Trello card stays open so the issue is tracked, but WebRun only sends a fresh WhatsApp ping when a server newly crosses the threshold, not every single hour it stays over.
