About maintenant

Drop a container. Your stack is monitored. When something breaks, fixed rules catch it, the alert is pushed to you, and your AI agent investigates through the built-in MCP server. Docker, Kubernetes, uptime, TLS, cron jobs, live logs, image updates, CVEs: auto-discovered, alerting on every one of them, from a single Go binary that fits in a few tens of MB of RAM when freshly started (about 100 MB after several days on a busy host). No PromQL, no exporters, no dashboards to build.
