Hand the extracted package to your coding agent with a concrete install brief instead of figuring it out manually.
I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete.
I downloaded an updated skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder, compare it with my current installation, and upgrade it while preserving any custom configuration unless the package docs explicitly say otherwise. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run.
Automatically monitor your CamelCamelCamel RSS feed for Amazon price drops and get notified on Telegram.
Get your RSS feed URL from CamelCamelCamel: Go to https://camelcamelcamel.com/ and set up price alerts Get your personal RSS feed URL (format: https://camelcamelcamel.com/alerts/YOUR_UNIQUE_ID.xml) Create a cron job with YOUR feed URL (not someone else's!): cron add \ --job '{ "name": "camelcamelcamel-monitor", "schedule": "0 */12 * * *", "task": "Monitor CamelCamelCamel price alerts", "command": "python3 /path/to/scripts/fetch_rss.py https://camelcamelcamel.com/alerts/YOUR_UNIQUE_ID.xml" }' Important: Replace YOUR_UNIQUE_ID with your own feed ID from step 1. Each person needs their own feed URL! Clawdbot will: Fetch your feed every 4 hours Detect new price alerts Send you Telegram notifications
The skill uses two components:
Fetches your CamelCamelCamel RSS feed Parses price alert items Compares against local cache to find new alerts Outputs JSON with new items detected Caches item hashes to avoid duplicate notifications
Runs on a schedule you define Triggers fetch_rss.py Can be configured to run hourly, every 4 hours, daily, etc.
See SETUP.md for: How to get your CamelCamelCamel RSS feed URL Step-by-step cron configuration Customizing check frequency Cache management Troubleshooting
The script maintains a cache at /tmp/camelcamelcamel/cache.json to track which alerts have been notified. This prevents duplicate notifications. Clear the cache to re-test notifications: rm /tmp/camelcamelcamel/cache.json
When a new price drop is detected, you'll receive a Telegram message like: 🛒 *Price Alert* *PRODUCT NAME - $XX.XX (Down from $YY.YY)* Current price: $XX.XX Historical low: $ZZ.ZZ Last checked: [timestamp] View on Amazon: [link]
Adjust the cron schedule (6th parameter in the schedule field): 0 * * * * → every hour 0 */4 * * * → every 4 hours (default) 0 */6 * * * → every 6 hours 0 0 * * * → daily
Edit scripts/notify.sh to customize the Telegram message layout and emoji.
Language: Python 3 (built-in libraries only) Cache: JSON file at /tmp/camelcamelcamel/cache.json Feed Format: Standard RSS/XML Dependencies: None beyond Python standard library Timeout: 10 seconds per feed fetch
If you're not receiving notifications: Verify the feed URL works in your browser Check the cron job exists: cron list Test manually: python3 scripts/fetch_rss.py <YOUR_FEED_URL> /tmp/camelcamelcamel Clear the cache to reset: rm /tmp/camelcamelcamel/cache.json Check Telegram is configured in Clawdbot See SETUP.md for more details.
