Checkly vs Better Stack vs Sentry vs Uptime Kuma vs UptimeRobot

General uptime monitoring + catching intermittent TLS failures on specific AWS API Gateway nodes.

Verdict

• General monitoring: Start with Checkly Free (6 locations, 1-2 min checks) + Sentry uptime ($1/monitor/month) if you're already on Sentry. Or self-host Uptime Kuma for free on a $5/mo VPS. UptimeRobot Free (50 monitors, 5-min checks) is another solid zero-cost option if you just need simple HTTP pings.
• Catching today's issue: Checkly Team ($64/mo) — 30s checks across 24 locations with TLS error detail. Better Stack, Sentry, Uptime Kuma, and UptimeRobot all fall short here — single-location or multi-failure requirements mean a bad node in a round-robin pool likely goes undetected.

Claude PR Review: GitHub App vs GitHub Actions vs Local (Laravel Boost)

---

Option 1 — GitHub App (github.com/apps/claude)

Installed once at the org level via claude.ai/admin-settings/claude-code. Reviews are posted as inline PR comments.

Triggers

• Auto on PR open/push (configurable)

Step 2 — One-Time Setup: php artisan goto:setup {tenant_id}

All GoTo setup for a tenant is handled by a single artisan command (app/Console/Commands/Telephony/GoToSetup.php) run locally by a Curitics admin. The setup flow itself — including the OAuth callback — is handled entirely within the command via an embedded TCP socket listener. No Laravel routes or controllers are required during setup. (The webhook route and controller are separate and exist for the ongoing call event integration, not the setup.)

How environments are handled: The command is always run locally, pointed at the target environment's database. Once run against production, the tenant's GoTo config (tokens, channel ID, account key) lives in the production DB and flows down to UAT and local via the standard DB backfill — those environments never need to run goto:setup independently.

What the command does

php artisan goto:setup {tenant_id}

Replacing Vapor's Encrypted Env Files: Approaches & Laravel Integration

Due to AWS Lambda limitations, Vapor environment variables are capped at ~2,000 characters. Vapor's built-in solution — encrypted environment files — works but has significant DX tradeoffs. This document evaluates alternatives with specific attention to how they integrate with Laravel's .env → config() pipeline.
