Watch your website every 5 minutes and get a down alert that says why

A founder had Grok Bot rebuild his site check: it checks the site and the services behind it every 5 minutes, retries after 5 seconds, only calls it down after 2 misses in a row and the alert email says why (self-reported). Every 5-minute run counts against usage limits; a free uptime service may be cheaper.

Every 5 minutes, check [WEBSITE URL] and [BOOKING OR QUOTE PAGE] and any service behind them, all at once. If something doesn't answer, try again 5 seconds later. Only call it down after 2 misses in a row, then email me which part failed and the error it returned. Email me again when it is back up.

Replace [BRACKETS] with your details. {{double braces}} are fields your automation tool fills in.
