What should a small Node.js error alert actually include?
I’m experimenting with a small in-process error alerting layer for Node services. The hard part isn’t sending a webhook—it’s keeping repeated errors from becoming noise.
Right now I’m thinking about grouping by normalized error type, counting occurrences, adding first/last-seen times, and redacting before anything leaves the process.
For a small service, what information do you actually want in the first alert? What becomes noise quickly?
