This Skill simplifies the monitoring of external data sources like RSS feeds and GitHub repositories by automatically polling and deduplicating updates.
Create a cron job to monitor a GitHub repository and be notified when new issues are added:
thoth cron create my-repo-watcher --schedule "* * * * *" --script "/path/to/watch_github.py" --script-args "--name my-repo --repo my-username/my-repo --scope issues"

Automate RSS feed and GitHub monitoring by scheduling polling scripts via cron jobs or terminal execution, which regularly fetch new entries and trigger alerts for detected changes.
Deduplication compares newly polled RSS and GitHub entries against a stored watermark of previously seen items, ensuring only genuinely new updates trigger notifications and preventing repeat alerts.
GitHub monitoring scripts can be executed directly from the terminal, allowing on-demand polling of repository issues, pulls, releases, and commits without requiring a background scheduling daemon.
Polling JSON APIs and RSS feeds relies entirely on Python's built-in libraries for HTTP requests and file handling, requiring no external dependencies or package installations.
Schedule automated GitHub watching by creating a cron job that executes the monitoring script at defined intervals, passing repository name, scope, and target arguments to track specific updates.
Stop duplicate notifications by using a monitoring system with built-in deduplication that maintains a watermark of seen items, filtering out previously fetched GitHub commits and RSS entries automatically.
