Worked health samples
The endpoint list below documents every operation’s parameters; this overlay walks the health ping the way a deployment checker actually uses it: read/api/health for the unversioned liveness probe → read
/api/v1/health for the versioned probe with the same envelope. Success
envelopes are { data, meta } — the four-shape round-trip is documented
in How to read a worked sample. The
unversioned probe exists so a container-orchestrator health check does
not need the API version; the versioned probe is what tenant clients
should hit.
Every response carries meta.request_id. Quote the request id when a
liveness flapping and the versioned probe both return 2xx — support can
correlate them to the process start time from the request id.
1. Unversioned liveness probe
GET /api/health returns the origin’s alive signal — a container
orchestrator pings this without any tenant scope, so it ignores the
X-API-Key and always resolves in milliseconds. Do not treat it as a
tenant check — a wrong API key does not error the liveness probe.

2. Versioned health probe
GET /api/v1/health returns the tenant-scoped health read — the versioned
path honours the tenant’s auth, so a bad API key errors your operator
check before it reaches the container. Use this for dashboards and
preflight.

3. Errors
Errors follow the{ error, meta } envelope. The failure every operator
hits:
401 — invalid or revoked key. On the versioned probe the API key
gates entry; the unversioned probe never errors, so a 401 here confirms
the credential itself.
