chainctl checks attempts

List every attempt at a check.

Synopsis

List every time the platform tried to produce a check’s result, oldest first: why it was tried (the first attempt, a retry past an environmental failure, a policy retry, a requested rerun), how it ended, whether the action cache answered it and from which run, the trust class it ran in, and where its time went.

REF is a directory (its HEAD), a pull request URL or owner/repo#N, a full 40-character commit SHA, or a Run or WorkflowRun id; the current directory by default. “checks logs –attempt N” and “checks events –attempt N” read one attempt.

With -o json the attempts are printed as the API returns them.

chainctl checks attempts [REF] --check CHECK [--workflow WORKFLOW] [--sandbox-url URL] [--parent ORGANIZATION_NAME | ORGANIZATION_ID] [--output=json]

Examples

  # Was this check retried, or served from the cache?
  chainctl checks attempts acme/app#123 --check test

Options

      --check string         The check, by name.
      --parent string        The organization or folder (name or ID) the Runs are in. Defaults to $CHAINCTL_SANDBOX_GROUP, then the default.group config value (env: CHAINGUARD_DEFAULT_GROUP).
      --sandbox-url string   URL of the sandbox control plane serving the WorkflowRuns API. Overridden by $CHAINCTL_WORKFLOWRUNS_URL. (default "https://workflowruns.chainbox.dev")
      --token string         Bearer token for the sandbox host. Overrides $CHAINCTL_AUTH_TOKEN and the chainctl session. Prefer passing it via the environment to keep it out of shell history.
      --workflow string      The workflow the check is in, when two workflows have a check of that name.
