Watch a web page for changes
Use “Watch a web page for changes” in Recued. Watches one web page and fires only when its content actually changed. Each tick fetches the URL and compares a version fingerprint of the body against the cursor row it wrote on the last fire, so an unchanged page costs one request and no model call.
