# Refactor: Remove unnecessary try/catch blocks in HealthService

The `HealthService` in the `github-workflow` MCP server contains several `try...catch` blocks around `logger.info()` calls.

These were added as a defensive measure to ensure logging failures could never disrupt the health check process.

However, upon review, these are unnecessary:
1.  The logger is a simple, synchronous wrapper around `console.error`.
2.  It only logs when the `debug` flag is active, otherwise it's a no-op.
3.  The risk of `console.error` throwing an exception is negligible in a standard Node.js environment.

This change removes these `try...catch` blocks to improve code clarity and reduce visual clutter, aligning with a "fail fast" principle if the logging mechanism itself were to be fundamentally broken.
