Retries and failures
cronpad handles failure at three levels. A failed attempt is retried with backoff when the failure looks temporary. A run fails when it runs out of attempts or hits a failure that won’t fix itself. A job whose runs fail too many times in a row is automatically disabled so it stops hammering a broken endpoint, and you are told about it.
