Keep an eye on your Laravel scheduled tasks and never miss a failure.
Laravel Scheduler is powerful: a single crontab entry, and all your tasks are elegantly managed in code. But this centralization creates a single point of failure. If the system cron or queue worker crashes, all your tasks stop.
MoniTao integrates seamlessly with Laravel. Use the native pingBefore/pingAfter hook or add a manual ping in your commands for granular monitoring.

Yes, Laravel pings the URL even if the task is dispatched to a queue. But beware: the ping confirms the dispatch, not necessarily the job execution.
Create a heartbeat with a 1-minute period, and add a ping in a job that runs everyMinute(). If the system scheduler crashes, the ping stops.
Laravel 8+ supports pingOnFailure(). MoniTao can receive this ping on a different endpoint to track explicit failures in addition to absences.
