    What we checked

    Does it run from the README?Yes. Running in 4:23 on a clean Linux box.The run

    Tested Oct 27, 2026, rev dca0737.

    Full run evidence and history

    Does it do what the README says?1 of 1 claims held up.Evidence

    “The -s option runs the command immediately at start”

    Expected command output printed at startup before the watcher is stopped. Got triggered-by-when-changed.

    Which checks were skipped?1 check skipped.Reasons

    Skipped checks count as neither passes nor failures.

    Examples: 1 skipped

    • Usage example: watch a file and run a command when it changes: Repo has no test suite or finite example; the documented usage is a long-running watcher. Covered by claims/probe (-s start run) and a manual file-modified test in <guest-path> (command ran with WHEN_CHANGED_EVENT=file_modified). README example pdflatex CV.tex not available in guest.
    Which setups did we try?Works with Haiku.Setups

    Linux / Haiku: works, Oct 27, rev dca0737.

    Needs keys, a login or a browser?No.Details

    None seen

    Is it safe to run?No unexpected network or file activity found in these checksWhat we saw

    No problems traced to this repository code in these checks; a short run cannot prove safety.

    Reviewed as expected for a test run: attempted writes that failed, so nothing was written.

    Full event, path and process lists for each observed setup:

    A quiet run is not a safety guarantee.
