Description
Node.js version
22
NPM version
10
@checkly/cli version
6.15
Steps to reproduce
- create a check returning a failure
- set a Slack alert channel to receive alerts in case of failure
- run
checkly trigger - no alert is sent to the Slack channel and nothing in the run results panel of the check
What is expected?
I expect to receive an alert in the Slack channel I configured
What is actually happening?
When I run the tests with checkly test or when the check is ran at a scheduled time the alert is received in Slack channel.
I expect to have the same behavior when I ran checkly trigger
Any additional comments?
My use case is to run the checks after a deployment has been done.

Research direction
Start by tracing the checkly trigger entry point and compare its alert behavior with checkly test and scheduled runs. Reproduce a failing check with a configured Slack alert, then verify that the alert is sent and the run appears in the check's run results panel.
