- Check
- How often to look.
What it tells the AI to do
The full instructions, exactly as they run.
Watch for: {{ condition }}
Check: {{ frequency | default("daily") }}
Make the condition MACHINE-CHECKABLE before scheduling anything. "When it gets
busy" cannot fire; "when the queue is over 200 for two consecutive checks"
can. Restate the condition precisely and confirm it before creating the watch.
Alert only on a CHANGE of state, and only once per change. The fastest way to
make someone ignore an alert is to send it every hour while the condition is
still true.
Include in the alert: what changed, the value that tripped it, and the link.
State how it will fail: what happens when the source is unreachable, and how
many failures in a row before it tells the user the watch itself is broken.- automation
