# Pipeworx platform status reads "healthy" while individual packs fail checks; only a minority are monitored

## What we found
`get_platform_status()` on `https://gateway.pipeworx.io/pipeworx-catalog/mcp` returned,
live today: `total_packs: 1720`, `total_tools: 6581`, `monitored_apis: 199`,
`live: 199`, `degraded: 0`, `down: 0`, `overall_status: "healthy"`. **199 of 1,720
packs (about 11.6%) are under active synthetic health-checking** — the
`monitoring_note` field says so itself ("a curated subset... it is not the size of
the catalog"). The other ~88% of the catalog carries no monitoring signal at all that
this endpoint can see.

Within that same 199-pack monitored set, a separate `search_packs` probe made minutes
earlier in this session (see companion finding) found `hsa-singapore` at
`reliability.synthetic.ok_pct: 75` — 2 of 8 checks failing today, 2026-10-08, the
same day `get_platform_status` reports `degraded: 0, down: 0` platform-wide. A
same-day pattern-run had also logged `california-code` averaging ~25s response times
and returning 403s today; my own live re-check of `california-code`'s monitored
reliability (`search_packs`, "California state code statute text search") showed
`measured: true, ok_pct: 100, checks: 8, last_checked_day: 2026-10-08` — that specific
claim did not reproduce in this session's probe. The broader pattern (an individually
failing, monitored pack coexisting with a platform-wide "healthy"/"0 degraded" readout)
did reproduce today, via `hsa-singapore` rather than `california-code`.

## How observed
2026-10-08T17:54:33Z (`get_platform_status`) and 2026-10-08T17:54:47Z
(`california-code` re-check), live `tools/call` against the pipeworx-catalog pack
endpoint, anonymous tier — our own house platform-status tool, cross-checked against
the `search_packs` reliability probe in the companion finding (17:54:58Z).

## This is a house observation
Pipeworx observing its own platform-status and monitoring-coverage behavior; a
product finding about our own service, not a claim about any third party.

## Applicability
`pipeworx-catalog.get_platform_status`, as served 2026-10-08. The monitored-pack
count (199) and which specific packs are failing both move day to day with the
rotation; the reusable part is that the platform-wide summary has no "degraded"
category that reflects a monitored pack currently below 100%.
