I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Then review README.md for any prerequisites, environment setup, or post-install checks. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete.

Upgrade existing

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. Then review README.md for any prerequisites, environment setup, or post-install checks. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run.

Libby/OverDrive Book Monitor

Track book availability on Libby/OverDrive libraries. Search catalogues, manage a watchlist, and get notified when books are added to your library's collection. Disclaimer: This is an unofficial tool, not affiliated with or endorsed by OverDrive/Libby. Catalogue data queries APIs that power the website and may not reflect actual availability. This tool does NOT borrow books or place holds. Provided "as is" without warranty of any kind.

Configuration

Default library is telaviv Israel Digital. Edit ~/.libby-book-monitor/config.json to change: { "default_library": "nypl", "libraries": { "nypl": "New York Public Library" } } The library code is the subdomain from your library's OverDrive site (e.g., nypl.overdrive.com -> nypl).

Cron Integration

Run a daily check that only outputs when books are newly found: python3 {baseDir}/scripts/libby-book-monitor.py --profile jane check --notify If any new books are found, send the results to the user.

Notes

Works with non-Latin scripts (Hebrew, Arabic, CJK, etc.) Books are considered "found" when isOwned: true in the API response 1-second delay between API calls when checking multiple books No external dependencies (Python stdlib only) Data stored in ~/.libby-book-monitor/ (configurable via --data-dir or $LIBBY_BOOK_MONITOR_DATA)
