Application: dead-mans-switch. Category: Observability & Monitoring. Project page: https://github.com/jimy-r/dead-mans-switch (MIT).

A small CLI that inverts the usual alerting direction for scheduled jobs: each job writes a success sentinel and the checker alerts on missing success rather than on errors, which catches the case where a job silently stops running. I run it over my own scheduled agent jobs.

Description is under 80 characters and ends with a full stop, per the guidelines.
