Is there a way to integrate the number of flows that are in a `late` stage with an alarm or a work pool becoming `unhealthy` with slack alarm?

hi <@U07PFD8JMMZ> - indeed there is!

you can create an automation that will
• be triggered on work pool entering/staying in Not Ready
• send a notification to slack when that trigger is fired

or if you need to be more specific, you could have a custom trigger that looks more specifically for some `threshold` of specific events that correspond to late flow runs
