Liveness probe
Lightweight liveness check for container orchestrators (Kubernetes, Docker, ECS).
Scope
Verifies only that the process is alive and serving HTTP traffic.
Does not check DB or Redis connectivity — use /readiness for that.
Performance Constant-time, no I/O. Safe to poll every 1–5 seconds.
Authorizations
HMAC-SHA256 authentication. Sign every request and send X-API-KEY, X-API-SIGNATURE, X-API-TIMESTAMP and X-API-NONCE (see the Authentication guide). Each route also requires a specific claim on your API key (e.g. read:orders, write:orders, read:account, read:market-data).
Response
Process is alive and accepting requests.
The response is of type string.
"running"
