+summary: A watchdog alerting on alertmanager notification failures.

+description: |
+  COS Alerter is a watchdog used to alert on alertmanager notification failures.
+  By leveraging an always-firing alert rule routed specifically to cos-alerter, you'll
+  be alerted if the pings stop happening - meaning your alertmanager is likely malfunctioning.
