 Use `scripts/run_watch.sh` when you explicitly want the broader all-hardware view or when debugging an individual source helper.
 
+For a quick Komodo-only recheck, use:
+
+```sh
+scripts/run_frame_watch.sh --komodo-only YYYY-MM-DD
+```
+
+This initializes the dated run folder, runs `check_komodo.sh`, prints whether Komodo product timestamps changed since the previous run, reports any newly discovered Komodo asset URLs, writes `run-summary.md`, and skips SteamKit/PICS, SteamDB, SteamTracking, SteamVR, SteamOS, Valve endpoint, customs, comparison, and status-draft steps.

+## Agent Checklist
+
+For a fresh coding agent, the normal operating loop is:
+
+1. Read `SKILL.md` before running or editing anything.
+2. Choose the narrowest relevant command:
+   - `scripts/run_frame_watch.sh YYYY-MM-DD` for the normal Frame-focused pass.
+   - `scripts/run_frame_watch.sh --komodo-only YYYY-MM-DD` for a quick Komodo recheck.
+   - `scripts/run_watch.sh YYYY-MM-DD` only for the broader all-hardware view or source-helper debugging.
+3. Inspect `frame-focus.md` first for full runs, then `run-summary.md`, `status-draft.md`, and `compare-vs-*.md`.
+4. Put primary package/store gates first when reporting: SteamKit/PICS, Valve APIs, SteamDB package pages, then Komodo.
+5. Treat SteamTracking, SteamVR, SteamOS, and customs rows as secondary context unless they connect directly to Frame package/API, public-page, or shipment evidence.
+6. Update `status/current.md` only for material movement or a new clean baseline.
+7. Append `status/evidence.jsonl` only for evidence-grade findings, using `scripts/append_evidence.py`.
+8. Keep raw artifacts under gitignored `runs/`; never commit `.local/`, browser profiles, sessions, cookies, or one-time auth codes.
+9. Validate before finishing: parse `status/evidence.jsonl` if touched, run `git diff --check`, inspect staged scope, and finish with `git status --short`.
+10. Commit only the intended files.
