My dot checks five agent makers every weekday morning at 9

Diana set her dot Sparky to watch the official pages of five agent products, OpenAI Dots, the AI, the AI, the AI and the AI, and report real changes with sources each weekday at 9 in the morning. Sparky asked what time she wanted it to run instead of picking one. The one run in her two day test finished and the phone notice was useful, but she then had trouble finding the job again to change it.

This only partly worked. Read what happened before you try it.

How it works

  1. Name the five official sources to watch
  2. The dot asks what time the job should run
  3. She picks 9 in the morning on weekdays
  4. The job runs once in the test window
  5. A report with sources and a phone notice arrive
  6. She later has trouble finding the job to edit it

Why it’s worth knowing

It asked for the run time instead of picking one in silence. That one question is what makes a daily job safe to live with.
