@SmokeDetector that's better

@angussidney still more likely to be Smokey's fault. The socket server is pretty stable, I'd be surprised if it broke.

Also, isn't CI status detected by MS then sent down the websocket?

We should probably add a socket status thing to MS, to tell us whether Smokey is still connected to the socket or not

and with the dozens of Smokey restarts this morning, it seems like a restart would not be expected to help

10:40 AM

@angussidney yep. CI sends reports to GitHub, GitHub pings it off to metasmoke, metasmoke sends it down a websocket to Smokey, and Smokey sends it down another websocket to chat.

Yay for convoluted chains with lots of possible breaking points

I was going to register for autoflagging but realized I'm not on the list :(

Jan 7 at 1:04, by ArtOfCode

Also, how about a !!/wstest command, to make metasmoke send something down the websocket

I'd happily bet that either Smokey or chat is the broken point.
