Frequently Asked Questions about clawdbot-release-check

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I get notified when a new GitHub release is published for my project?▼

GitHub release monitoring automates version checks using curl and jq to fetch release data, caches results, and sends notifications like Telegram alerts when a newer version is published.

How do I set up a daily cron job to check for software updates and send Telegram notifications?▼

Run the setup script with your Telegram ID to configure daily cron checks. The script schedules periodic GitHub release polling and routes update alerts directly to your Telegram account.

Do I need curl and jq installed to monitor GitHub releases automatically?▼

Yes, curl and jq are required dependencies. The monitoring script uses curl to fetch GitHub release API endpoints and jq to parse the JSON responses for version comparison and highlights.

Can I manually run a release check to verify my update notifications are working?▼

Yes, execute the check.sh script manually. This performs an immediate GitHub release query, compares the latest published version against your cached state, and triggers notifications if updates are found.

How does automated release tracking prevent duplicate update alerts?▼

The release tracker caches results and stores state locally between checks. By persisting the last known version, it suppresses repeat notifications and only alerts you when a genuinely newer release is published.
