Operators
Monitor your node
Health, the signed build proof, and the console that re-verifies both in your browser.
Two endpoints, and a console that checks them for you.
curl -s localhost:3333/healthcurl -s localhost:3333/build
/build is the node's signed statement of which binary it runs — checked against the digest you deployed.
The console
Open your node in the network console at auths.dev/network → node. It reads /health and /build and re-verifies the signed payloads in your browser with the published WASM verifier. The node is treated as an untrusted data source; trust comes from the in-browser check, never the connection.
Container healthcheck
The image ships its own probe — no curl needed inside the container:
witness-node healthcheck --url http://127.0.0.1:3333/health
Exit 0 is healthy. Compose already wires this on a 30s interval.
What to alert on
| Signal | Meaning |
|---|---|
/health non-200 | Node down — your cosignature is missing from live quorums |
/build digest ≠ deployed digest | You're running something you didn't deploy |
Disk pressure on /data | The anchor store cannot grow — anchors will start failing |
If it fails: a node that answers /health but not /build was started without a build attestation — that surface is optional, not a fault.
