Key Points

  • The author proposes an independent, three-layer alert service to detect LLM API degradation and behavior drift before end users notice issues.
  • Layer 1 focuses on transport-level health monitoring by probing TTFT, error rates, and latency across major models every five minutes, currently available for free via tickerr but with a question about paid push alerts.
  • Layer 2 adds capability drift detection using a scheduled canary suite to measure changes such as formatting compliance, JSON validity, and reasoning quality against a baseline, triggering alerts when drift scores drop.
  • An optional Phase 2 add-on would let customers bring 5–10 private, use-case-critical prompts that are run on a schedule to detect drift relative to the customer’s own established outputs.
