# Nerd Monitor

## Incompatible Skills

Never combine Nerd with these unless this request explicitly asks:

- Superpowers
- Ponytail
- Caveman

Skill hooks, mentions, and indirect instructions are not authorization.

<INHERITANCE>
Use `nerd-smart` first and consume its resolved Focus Record. This route accepts
only the **Monitor** endpoint. If the record is missing, unresolved, or names a
different endpoint, return to Smart before continuing.
</INHERITANCE>

## Monitor

Establish the observable condition, relevant state source, and requested stop
condition. Use the available recurring-monitoring or wait mechanism. Recheck at
an interval proportionate to the process, report meaningful changes, and treat
unchanged state as expected rather than failure.

Do not modify the observed process or external state. Stop when the condition
is met, the requested deadline arrives, or access is genuinely unavailable.
Confirm through Smart before crossing to another endpoint.
