Overnight breaking-news alarm: X check every 5 minutes, then lights on and Alexa announcement
The news you're waiting for may break while you're asleep in another time zone.
Qué dolía
Tobias Goebel (@tpgoebel) wanted to be awake the moment a rumored European announcement dropped overnight on US Eastern time. Not affiliated with xAI.
Qué instalar o crear
The bot monitors X every 5 minutes from midnight to 8am ET. When the news appears it calls Voice Monkey's API, which kicks off an Alexa routine: a SwitchBot robot finger flips the bedroom lights on and an announcement plays on every Alexa speaker.

Primer uso
- 1Read https://x.com/tpgoebel/status/2108311538272534542 (credit @tpgoebel).
- 2Define the exact news you're waiting for and the time window.
- 3Set up a Voice Monkey trigger that starts an Alexa routine (lights, announcement).
- 4Give the bot the trigger's API details through a secret field, not chat.
- 5Create the routine for that window only, and switch it off afterwards.
Valla de aprobación
Read-only on X. A 5-minute check uses usage fast; limit it to the window you need.
Qué ajustar
Give it a narrow time window and a precise trigger so false alarms stay rare.
