Umbraco Health Check

What it does

This skill enables AI agents to create and manage custom system diagnostics within Umbraco, which appear in the Health Check dashboard. These health checks verify that your Umbraco installation and related services are functioning correctly. They can report status, display warnings, and provide actionable recommendations for resolving issues, contributing to a stable user experience.

When to use it

• When you need to monitor specific aspects of your Umbraco site beyond the default health checks.
• To proactively identify and address potential problems before they impact users.
• For creating custom diagnostics related to integrations or third-party services used within your Umbraco site.
• When needing to provide actionable steps for resolving detected issues directly from the Health Check dashboard.

Key capabilities

• Creation of custom health checks with names and aliases.
• Definition of API endpoints for executing health check logic.
• Reporting of status, warnings, and recommendations within the Umbraco Health Check dashboard.
• Provision of actionable steps (actions) to resolve identified issues.

Example prompts

• "Create a custom health check that verifies the connection to our database."
• "Generate a health check that displays a warning if our CDN is unavailable."
• "Implement a 'fix-issue' action for my custom health check that attempts to restart the service."

Tips & gotchas

• Requires familiarity with Umbraco development and concepts.
• Refer to the official Umbraco documentation (linked in the source) for the most up-to-date implementation details.
• Consider using the UmbControllerHost when implementing context logic.
