Should you build your own Checkly?

Build a personal replacement for Checkly in an empty repository.
Use Go, PostgreSQL, ClickHouse, a Next.js 15 dashboard, and Docker Compose; do not offer alternative stacks.
The core loop is: run scheduled API and browser checks from one independent worker, receive bounded error or log events, alert through one channel, and publish an honest status page.
Make the first run work locally with one documented command.
Store all user data locally by default and make export straightforward.
Put secrets in .env, ship .env.example, and never commit credentials.
Implement HTTP, TCP, DNS, TLS-expiry, and heartbeat checks with explicit timeout and retry policies.
Run checks from one independently hosted worker and store raw results plus incident state transitions.
Send deduplicated alerts to email or one webhook destination with recovery notifications.
Create services, maintenance windows, incidents, subscribers, and a public status page.
Add bounded event ingestion for application errors with sampling and sensitive-field scrubbing.
Provide health checks, retention settings, exports, backups, and a test-alert function.
Include clear empty, loading, success, and recoverable error states.
Add input validation, safe filenames, and graceful handling of unavailable APIs.
Write focused tests for the core transformation and one end-to-end happy path.
Create a README with setup, architecture, permissions, data location, and backup steps.
Do not add accounts, billing, telemetry, analytics, or a hosted control plane.
Deliberately leave out a worldwide probe network.
Deliberately leave out phone, SMS, and managed on-call escalation.
Deliberately leave out unbounded logs, enterprise observability, and vendor-operated incident response.
Finish by running the tests and listing the exact commands used.
