TL;DR

AI summary of the plugin's readme

This plugin is for WordPress site owners who rely on WP-Cron for updates, scheduled posts, or WooCommerce subscription billing. It solves the problem of not knowing when WP-Cron silently stops working, by periodically checking WP-Cron's ability to run and logging hook execution so failures can be detected and emailed to the admin.
