Completed is not done. Crontinel is an outcome monitor for background jobs. It tells you when a job finished with exit code 0 but did no work.
Every runtime sends the same HTTP receipt when a job ends. Crontinel checks it against your rules (for example, "processed at least one record") and alerts by email, Slack or webhook.
