    An Update Watch for Features That Replace Custom Work

    A quiet recurring watch designed to identify new app permissions, integrations, account support, controls, retirements, and migrations. It compares installed builds with official announcements so server-delivered changes are considered alongside desktop releases.

    Automation created

    Highlights

    • The source created ChatGPT & Codex update watch for 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. Eastern.
    • No direct app-updated trigger was exposed in the source session, so the watch used scheduled checks.
    • The first run was configured to catch up on recent changes; later runs should avoid repeating findings.
    • Alerts explain the change, its consequence for existing custom work, required action, and supporting evidence.

    Actions and follow-ups

    Actions Taken

    Created a thread-attached heartbeat and specified twice-daily Eastern checks, a first-run catch-up, meaningful-change alerts, and quiet unchanged runs.

    Actions Outstanding

    The source established configuration, not delivery performance. This intake preserves that September 11 checkpoint; it does not assert later execution, create another watch, or change its schedule.

    Source conclusion
    It checks installed builds and official announcements to catch changes delivered independently of app updates.

    Decisions

    • Check both installed versions and official announcements rather than relying on app builds alone.
    • Stay quiet when nothing meaningful changes and retain a baseline for deduplication.
    • Flag changes that could retire or simplify custom workflows, including permission and account-support changes.
