rune health

rune health [target] [name] [flags]

Examples

# Service (explicit target)
rune health service api -n default --checks

# Instance
rune health instance api-instance-7c2e --checks

# Node (single-node mode)
rune health node --checks

# Short aliases
rune health svc api
rune health inst api-instance-7c2e

When you pass a single argument, Rune tries service first, then falls back to instance.
