  • Reduce routine context switching between Ably and Beaconchain.
  • Spot when a node is syncing or in an error state.

  • 3Describe: On each run, check the specified Ably channel's presence and Beaconchain node health, then summarize both results.
  • 4Choose the schedule trigger and where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real example and confirm the report is useful.

Questions about this workflow

Does this workflow assume an Ably event trigger?

No. It uses a Notis schedule and asks Notis to check Ably channel presence during each run.

Which Beaconchain information is checked?

Get Node Health returns the node's health status, such as ready, syncing, or an error state.

Can it tell whether presence changed since the previous run?

Only if you supply a baseline or the run data includes prior presence information. The listed actions do not provide Ably presence history.
