Can I see the reason why my website went down via AI?

Yes! Use the `get_root_cause_analysis` tool and provide the Alert ID (PK). Your agent will retrieve the detailed RCA report explaining the failure.

How do I create a new HTTP check to monitor a URL?

Use the `create_check` action. Provide the name, address (URL), and set the `check_type` to 'HTTP'. The agent will instantly register the new monitor.

Is it possible to see the performance statistics for a monitor?

Absolutely. Run the `get_check_stats` query with your Check ID to retrieve performance and uptime metrics for that specific service.
