Tool	Type	What it does
`healthchecksio_list_checks`	read	List checks List all checks in the project, optionally filtered by slug and/or tags. Returns {checks:[...]} — each check's status, schedule, last ping, and ping URL. Healthchecks: GET /checks/.
`healthchecksio_get_check`	read	Get check Get a single check by its UUID (or its unique read-only key). Returns the check's full state — status, timeout/schedule, grace, tags, last ping. Healthchecks: GET /checks/{uuid}.
`healthchecksio_list_pings`	read	List pings List a check's logged pings (100 on the free plan, 1000 on paid), most recent first. Each ping: type, date, n, scheme, remote_addr, method, ua, rid, duration, body_url. Healthchecks: GET /checks/{uuid}/pings/.
`healthchecksio_get_ping_body`	read	Get ping body Get the logged request body of a single ping, returned as PLAIN TEXT (verbatim, not JSON). Healthchecks: GET /checks/{uuid}/pings/{n}/body.
`healthchecksio_list_flips`	read	List flips List a check's status changes ("flips") over time — [{timestamp, up}]. Optionally scope by a lookback window or an explicit start/end range. Healthchecks: GET /checks/{uuid}/flips/.
`healthchecksio_list_integrations`	read	List integrations List the project's notification integrations ("channels") — {channels:[{id, name, kind}]}. The ids are what you assign to a check's `channels` field. Healthchecks: GET /channels/.
`healthchecksio_list_badges`	read	List badges List the project's status-badge URLs per tag (plus "*" for the overall status) — {badges:{...}}. Healthchecks: GET /badges/.
`healthchecksio_create_check`	write	Create check CREATES a new check — this MODIFIES live monitoring config. Provide a `timeout` (simple period-based check) OR a `schedule` + `tz` (cron-based check); the two are mutually exclusive. Use `unique` to avoid creating duplicates. Assign notifications via `channels`. Healthchecks: POST /checks/. Returns the created check (201) or the existing match (200).
`healthchecksio_update_check`	write	Update check UPDATES an existing check by UUID — this MODIFIES live monitoring config. Send only the fields you want to change (timeout and schedule remain mutually exclusive). Healthchecks: POST /checks/{uuid}. Returns the updated check.
`healthchecksio_pause_check`	write	Pause check PAUSES a check — disables monitoring without deleting it (it stops going down for missed pings until it next receives a ping or is resumed). This MODIFIES live monitoring config. Healthchecks: POST /checks/{uuid}/pause (empty body).
`healthchecksio_resume_check`	write	Resume check RESUMES a paused check — re-enables monitoring. This MODIFIES live monitoring config. Returns HTTP 409 (surfaced cleanly) if the check is not currently paused. Healthchecks: POST /checks/{uuid}/resume (empty body).
`healthchecksio_delete_check`	write	Delete check PERMANENTLY DELETES a check by UUID — this MODIFIES live monitoring config and cannot be undone. Healthchecks: DELETE /checks/{uuid}. Returns the deleted check's last known state.
`healthchecksio_usage_status`	meta	Usage status (free-tier meter) Report the caller's current free-tier usage this month: calls used, monthly limit, remaining, and whether the cap is reached. Read-only; does not count against the meter.
`healthchecksio_upgrade`	meta	Upgrade to Pro (unlimited) Subscribe to the Pro plan for UNLIMITED Healthchecks.io tool calls (the free tier caps monthly usage). Choose monthly ($9/month) or yearly ($90/year — 2 months free) billing. Returns a Stripe Checkout link to open in your browser; after payment your account upgrades automatically. Read-only; does not count against the meter.
