01 · The chore

You find out a competitor dropped their price when a prospect tells you on a call. By then you are negotiating against a page you have not read.

02 · The handoff

Schedule: Every Monday at 8 AM · cron 0 8 * * 1

prompt.txt
Check these competitor pages: <PRICING, CHANGELOG, HOMEPAGE URLS>. Compare with last week's snapshot (stored in <FILE>). Report any change in prices, plans, headline messaging, new features or new integrations, with before/after text. Then save this week's snapshot. Suggest one way we should respond.
03 · What can break

Cookie banners and rotating testimonials can make every week look like a change. Fix: tell the agent to compare only headings, plan names, prices and feature lists, and to ignore anything that changes on every load.

04 · Guardrail

Snapshots go to one file you own. The agent suggests a response; it does not change your own pricing page.

Steal this tweak

Add one line: "If nothing meaningful changed, reply with one sentence." Quiet weeks should cost you five seconds.
