Blocket Watch
OS-scheduled watcher for Blocket.se (Sweden). It runs blocket with your search argv, tracks seen ad IDs in seen.json, and notifies only via openclaw message send (Telegram by default). No hosted model is invoked during polling.
When to use this skill
- You run OpenClaw with the Telegram channel configured.
- You have the
blocketCLI installed (blocket --help). - You want periodic checks (e.g. systemd user timer), not OpenClaw Gateway cron alone.
Install (end user)
- Install OpenClaw and authenticate
openclawsoopenclaw message sendworks. - Install
blocket(see upstream docs for your OS). - Copy this skill folder to a fixed path, e.g.
~/.openclaw/scripts/blocket-watch/. cp config.example.json config.jsonand edit:
- telegram_target: your Telegram chat id (DM with the bot). - queries: one object per search; argv is passed to blocket after the binary name.
cp seen.example.json seen.json(or start with{"ids":[]}).chmod +x poll.sh onboard.sh- Optional: install
systemd/blocket-watch.serviceandblocket-watch.timer— editWorkingDirectoryandExecStartin the service file to match step 3. systemctl --user enable --now blocket-watch.timer

Config shape
enabled: settruewhen ready.telegram_target: recipient foropenclaw message send.queries: list of{ "label", "argv", optional "max_price", "max_price_currency" }.
If max_price is set, only listings ≤ max_price in that currency are notified (default currency SEK).
See README.md for argv examples (general search, cars, boats).
Security and etiquette
- Do not commit real
config.jsonorseen.jsonwith personal chat IDs to public repos. - Respect Blocket’s terms of use and rate limits; this tool is for personal monitoring.
- Telegram targets and search terms are your data — keep them private.
