Description:
Decentralized, multi-region monitoring system that evaluates the real performance and availability of public Story RPC endpoints using actual JSON-RPC calls (not ping/TCP checks). Provides objective metrics such as latency, sync status, block height, uptime, and node metadata.
Value for Story:
Improves transparency and reliability of public RPC infrastructure, helps detect degraded or unreliable endpoints early, and enables developers, indexers, and delegators to identify high-quality access points across regions.

Docs:
https://github.com/Cumulo-pro/Cumulo-Front-Chain/tree/main/check_peers
Description:
Distributed monitoring system that analyzes P2P peers in the Story Protocol network, aggregating latency, uptime, geolocation, and historical availability to produce ranked peer views.
Value for Story:
Improves peer selection and network stability by helping validators and operators identify low-latency, high-availability peers across regions, strengthening the gossip and connectivity layer.
Resources:

- Testnet: https://cumulo.pro/services/story-aeneid/resources
Description:
Continuously updated directory that aggregates validator-provided infrastructure and tooling for the Story Protocol ecosystem. Resources are indexed and filterable by category to enable fast discovery.
Value for Story:
Improves accessibility and usability of the ecosystem by making public RPCs, gRPCs, APIs, EVM RPCs, explorers, snapshots, tools, and technical content easy to locate for developers, validators, delegators, and infrastructure operators.
Key Features:
• Indexed by resource type (RPC, gRPC, API, EVM, Snapshots, Tools, Content, Explorers)
• Covers contributions from multiple Story validators
• Supports both mainnet and testnet environments
• Regularly updated to reflect active infrastructure
Resources:
- Mainnet: https://cumulo.pro/services/story/snapshot
- Testnet: https://cumulo.pro/services/story-aeneid/snapshot
Description:
High-performance consensus and execution (Geth) snapshots for Story mainnet, optimized for fast and reliable node recovery using parallel downloads with aria2c.
Value for Story:
Reduces node sync time and operational overhead for validators and node operators, improves network resilience during restarts or migrations, and enables faster recovery after incidents or maintenance.
Key Features:
• Separate snapshots for consensus layer and Geth
• Optimized for multi-connection downloads (aria2c)
• Clear, reproducible restore procedure
• Designed to minimize downtime and sync-related issues

Description:
Production-grade Grafana monitoring dashboard (v3) for Story validators, providing clear separation between network health and validator performance, with renewed and unified technical documentation.
Value for Story:
Improves operational visibility, helps validators detect consensus or performance issues early, and raises the overall quality and observability of Story’s validator infrastructure.
Resource:
Description:
Public, timestamped activity and incident log documenting all relevant operational events affecting our Story Protocol infrastructure, including incidents, upgrades, configuration changes, and maintenance actions.
Value for Story:
Improves transparency and accountability for delegators, teams, and validators by providing clear visibility into infrastructure events, how they are handled, and the measures taken to prevent future issues.

- Testnet: https://cumulo.pro/services/story-aeneid/conect.php#public-endpoints
Description:
Publicly available RPC, API, gRPC, JSON-RPC and WebSocket endpoints operated and maintained for the Story Protocol network.
Resource:
Docs:
Description:
Automated alerting system for Story Protocol validators, designed to notify operators of critical events affecting node health and performance.
Value for Story:
Enables faster incident detection and response, reducing downtime and improving overall reliability of validator operations across the network.
Resource:
Docs:
Description:
Internal monitoring bot that performs external checks against Story Protocol infrastructure and endpoints, with configurable rules and thresholds documented in GitHub.
Value for Story:
Adds an additional monitoring layer from an external perspective, improving early detection of connectivity or availability issues and complementing on-node alerting systems.
