What This Skill Does
Monitors prices, websites, and custom conditions, then sends Telegram notifications when triggers fire. Supports stocks via yfinance, crypto prices, and arbitrary event changes. Runs checks via cron for continuous background monitoring.
Combines price data, web monitoring, and notifications in one system instead of stitching together separate tools for each.
When to use it
- Get notified when BTC crosses a target price
- Track a product page for restocks or price drops
- Alert when a stock hits a buy or sell threshold
- Monitor a website for content changes
- Schedule recurring checks without manual intervention
