We at Checkly shipped a major CLI v8 release. Here's everything new, and why it's built for your agent. The CLI v8 expands Monitoring as Code and streamlines your everyday workflows: Upgrade and try it: npm install checkly@latest Chapters.

With the SIGNL4 mobile app, you can route incoming calls directly to your on-call team and ensure a reliable response around the clock. If no one is available, voicemails are automatically converted into alerts and sent to your team instantly.

Cortex co-founder and CTO Ganesh Datta sits down with Shawn Burke, Distinguished Engineer at Cortex, to explore what separates an operational excellence review that drives real engineering behavior from one that produces great conversation and nothing else. Shawn draws on experience from SoFi, Uber, and Microsoft to explain why these reviews so often fail—and how to build a process that actually sticks.

Are users reporting issues before your monitoring tools do? Are critical alerts getting lost in the noise? Does root cause analysis take hours instead of minutes? These are 3 signs your network monitoring is failing. Discover how modern observability helps teams detect issues faster and resolve them with confidence.

Business metrics should inform almost every other metric that's being evaluated.

Trust is everything when AI gets personal. Golden Grot Award winner and NeoSapien co-founder and CEO Dhananjay Yadav shares how his team uses Grafana Assistant to ensure the privacy-first AI wearable delivers a seamless, reliable experience without compromising its mission. Because when AI moves closer to our everyday lives, teams need to know what’s happening — and users need to trust that it’s working as intended.

AI agents are powerful. They're also unpredictable, non-deterministic, and capable of doing things you didn't ask them to do, as the Rome Alibaba and Claude Mythos case studies make very clear. The answer isn't to avoid agentic AI. It's to run it properly. In this demo, Ben Norris, founding engineer at relaxAI, shows how to build a fully sandboxed AI agent environment from scratch, an ephemeral Civo VM provisioned via Terraform and GitHub Actions, locked down with egress policies, an unprivileged Linux user, and hard resource caps, running a Claude Code session pointed at the relaxAI API.
