# 0.3 — Health endpoints (GREEN)
Phase: 0 — Foundations
Stage: GREEN
Depends on: [0.2](0.2-route-configuration.md)
- [x] `GET /healthz` returns `200` whenever the process is alive
- [x] `GET /healthz` contacts no upstream and performs no network I/O
- [x] `GET /readyz` returns `200` only when configuration is valid and, if auth is enabled, JWKS has been fetched at least once
- [x] `GET /readyz` returns a non-`2xx` status while configuration is invalid or JWKS has never been fetched
- [x] Neither endpoint requires authentication, even when the auth flag is on
- [x] Neither path is proxied to any upstream, and neither can be shadowed by a configured route
`/healthz` backs the liveness probe, so it must stay cheap and must not fail because
an upstream is down — restarting the gateway does not fix a sick vLLM pod. `/readyz`
backs the readiness probe and is allowed to fail, taking the pod out of the nginx
endpoint pool until it can actually serve.
## Verify
```bash
go test ./internal/server/... -run TestHealthEndpoints -v
# expected: passes — /healthz is 200 with upstreams unreachable; /readyz is non-2xx
# before first JWKS fetch and 200 after; both answer with no Authorization header
```
