+# Genesis Uptime Monitor
+
+This package sets up a simple service uptime tracker on your local server (e.g., Krang). It includes:
+
+- A Python Flask API to report 24-hour uptime
+- A bash script to log uptime results every 5 minutes
+- A systemd unit to keep the API running
+
+## Setup Instructions
+
+### 1. Install Requirements
+
+```bash
+sudo apt install python3-venv curl
+cd ~
+python3 -m venv genesis_api
+source genesis_api/bin/activate
+pip install flask
+```
+
+### 2. Place Files
+
+- `uptime_server.py` → `/home/doc/uptime_server.py`
+- `genesis_check.sh` → `/usr/local/bin/genesis_check.sh` (make it executable)
+- `genesis_uptime_api.service` → `/etc/systemd/system/genesis_uptime_api.service`
+
+### 3. Enable Cron
+
+Edit your crontab with `crontab -e` and add:
+
+```cron
+*/5 * * * * /usr/local/bin/genesis_check.sh
+```
+
+### 4. Start API Service
+
+```bash
+sudo systemctl daemon-reload
+sudo systemctl enable --now genesis_uptime_api
+```
+
+Then browse to `http://localhost:5000/api/uptime/radio`
+
+## Web Integration
+
+In your HTML, add a div and script like this:
+
+```html
+<div id="radioUptime"><small>Uptime: Loading…</small></div>
+<script>
+fetch('/api/uptime/radio')
+  .then(r => r.json())
+  .then(data => {
+    document.getElementById('radioUptime').innerHTML = `<small>Uptime: ${data.uptime}% (24h)</small>`;
+  });
+</script>
+```
