It scanned OpenTable every 10 minutes and booked the table the moment a cancellation opened one

He set the AI to check OpenTable every 10 minutes for a restaurant table for 3, using the OpenTable connector to keep token use down. When a slot opened in the morning for the next day, it booked it immediately. He got no confirmation in the chat, but found the booking confirmed in his OpenTable account. The watch used 1.48 million tokens in total.

How it works

  1. Set a check every 10 minutes through the OpenTable connector
  2. Watch for a cancellation slot
  3. Slot opens for the next day
  4. Book it at once
  5. Booking confirmed in his OpenTable account

Why it’s worth knowing

It booked the table on its own when the slot appeared, and the proof was sitting in his OpenTable account, not in a chat message.
