Both demos went quiet for up to a minute between the build turning red and
the monitor reacting, because Ariadne's tick is on cron. The scripts now run
that tick immediately over the pod's own loopback - nothing exposed outside
the cluster - and print what it saw, so the pause becomes a visible step
rather than dead air.
Falls back to silence rather than failure: if the request does not land the
scheduler still picks the build up within the minute, which is exactly the
old behaviour.
