Diff known competitors' public pricing and changelog pages against the last watch and report only the changes that need a response.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
The point of this workflow is silence most weeks and a specific, actionable report the week
something actually moves. Produce a diff, never a restated summary of a competitor's site.
Read SCHEMA.md and LAYOUT.md before starting. Extract the Python block from SCHEMA.md into a
scratch module and use it unchanged for reading history, diffing, carrying forward unread pages,
the status and the evidence block.
## Budget
- At most `max_competitors` competitors (1 to 5) and four pages each.
- At most 30 web actions in total. Stop when the budget is spent; pages you did not reach are
`error` with "budget" in the Not read section, never guessed.
- Public pages only. No login, account creation, form, trial signup, contact or demo request.
## 1. Load history
1. List `reports/competitor-watch/*.md` in the project checkout. Read them and call
`latest({path: text})`. File names are run ids, not dates; order comes from the block.
2. Every path in `skipped` goes under Not read as "earlier report with an unreadable evidence
block". A malformed block is never diffed against, and never counts as "prices removed".
3. The returned evidence (or None) is `previous` for the whole run.
…Read the whole file at its exact version.
How to install
mdr add tin-computer/tin/competitor-watch@sha256:6dadfbe60a5299f7The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260924.0d5d7a1, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
