Notify your Dot when your app’s data changes

@itsJaimeMedina added MCP Events to his app’s MCP server; the Dot watched a contact and pinged him when it changed.

Prompt for your agent

Goal: Let my Dot react to events in my own app instead of polling.
Setup: agents used in source: ChatGPT Dots; tools/MCPs stated: MCP, Docker.
Steps:
1. Add events to your app’s MCP server.
2. Run a sender (here in Docker) that delivers events to ChatGPT.
3. Ask your Dot to watch something (e.g. a contact’s company name), change it in the app and confirm you get a notification.
4. Extend it: a failed job triggers a log review, a finished build triggers a check and summary.
Rules: ask me before anything irreversible (sending, posting, paying, deleting); don’t invent data, results or tools I haven’t given you; tell me what you couldn’t verify.
