SERVICE STATUS

Service Status

Whether the checking engine and its live-progress stream are up. Read it before starting a batch, or to drive a status light in your own tool; Codequiry Desktop's sidebar indicator is this endpoint.

GET https://codequiry.com/api/v1/status

What it reports

Two probes: core (the engine that runs checks) and stream (the service that publishes live progress). online is true only when both are up. The answer comes from a one-minute cache shared with the dashboard's status badge, so however many clients poll it, the engine is probed once a minute. Poll this rather than the engine host itself.

While the engine is offline, POST /check/start answers 503 and the check stays queued on your side; nothing is consumed.
