Operations and cluster health

HTTP health endpoints

• GET /healthz — process liveness only.
• GET /readyz — quorum-aware readiness; returns success only when cluster quorum expectations are met.
• GET /api/health — JSON payload describing the local node and connected cluster members.

Quorum environment variables

The Elixir README documents the required and optional variables:

• TOTAL_NODES — required positive integer describing how many nodes participate in quorum math.
• QUORUM_POLL_INTERVAL_MS — optional polling interval (defaults to 2000).
• QUORUM_GRACE_MS — optional grace window (defaults to 20000) before a hard stop when quorum is lost.

During development, TOTAL_NODES=1 is usually enough to keep readiness checks intuitive on a laptop.
