# Health Check

`GET /health`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.africadb.com` (the document declares no server; this is the origin it was published from)
- URL: `https://api.africadb.com/health`
- Auth: none declared

Health check: per-backend reachability rollup for the LB probe.

Both backend probes run in parallel with a shared 1.5s timeout so a
single slow sub-service can never push the health endpoint above ~2s
(LB probes typically fire every 5-30s and count consecutive failures,
so a slow /health cascades into false unhealthy reports fast).

## Response `200`

Successful Response

- unknown
