Cline automates Better Stack workflows
Cline uses `get_incident` to pull the full timeline into your workspace. It parses the data to help you identify the root cause of a crash. Once the issue is fixed, tell Cline to run `resolve_incident`. It writes the confirmation and verifies the state change for you.
Live status checks in Cline
Fetch your current heartbeat status using `list_heartbeats`. Cline reads the response and alerts you if a critical node goes silent. It keeps the data in your context window. You get the facts you need to debug without hunting through browser tabs.
