Hey HN! I built DevTools.ink after getting frustrated with GitHub Actions being slow and not knowing if it was just me or a platform issue.

It monitors popular developer tools (GitHub, npm, Vercel, Docker Hub, AWS, etc.) with real-time status updates. The key feature is that it's optimized for ChatGPT – you can ask "Is GitHub down?" and ChatGPT can check devtools.ink/github for an instant answer.

*Features:* - Real-time monitoring via n8n workflows - Simple URLs like devtools.ink/github for quick checks - ChatGPT-optimized API responses - Alternative tools suggestions when services are down - No ads, no tracking, just status info

*Tech stack:* Next.js 14, Redis (Upstash), n8n for monitoring, deployed on Vercel

The site helped me yesterday when npm was acting up – turned out it was a regional issue, not my setup.

Would love feedback from fellow developers!
