Wasn't sure where to share this... but I thought it may be helpful for some people here. I tried following LAX on X/Twitter, gives nothing but TBIT which is frustrating.
I've been using an AI Bot called "POKE" and it just occurred to me that it could handle this task, had it completed in 5 minutes. It uses flightqueue.com and seems relatively accurate. Today they became a "free platform" for recipes. It's all done via iMessage, WhatsApp, Telegram or SMS. No "forms to fill out" get boarded in 10 seconds. if you don't know the airport code, just ask and it will get it.
I really don't intend to spam this, the AI bot is free.. I think once you use it, you'll see the brilliance. Also, I have another that pulls my calendar feed from Tripit (I'll save that for later, don't want to be spammy, same deal.. free but it does need TripIt Pro for the calendar feed.. it works together with the TSA Checker to auto check)
Not a newbie here, so this isn't a passing by spam job


Get real-time security wait times for any major airport just by texting the airport code. Set up automated alerts for your upcoming flights without ever connecting your email.

If it helps, I created a little landing page page that explains a little more on each recipe I created..
https://ogeneo.com/Poke/Recipes.html
Here's exactly how it works:
No app to download, no account to create, no passwords. It's a private text conversation with an AI assistant.
On privacy: Poke is SOC 2 Type II and CASA Tier II certified by outside auditors. Maximum Privacy is on by default, meaning no one at the company can see your messages or data and they don't train on anything you share. Your phone number is only used to text you what you asked for. You can stop anytime with one text. Full details at poke.com/faq

Here's exactly how it works:
- Tap the recipe link and you'll see a quick summary of what it does
- Hit 'Get Started' and enter your phone number
- Pick iMessage, WhatsApp, or Telegram and Poke sends you a verification code
- Once verified, the recipe starts immediately and walks you through setup

Just asked it about LAX (Updated it on T5 being closed for remodel) the feed for TSA delays did not include that. The bot is now aware and will note that

Igene , is the Tripit Pro feed unavaiulable? I'm getting a 404.
Try this link the recipe... the one issue with POKE is when I modify the "recipe" it creates a new URL to POKE. I'm working on keeping the permalinks on my website updated. The folks at @Interaction are working on a new method. I made a minor tweak,

Completely rewritten. I've been using this via a custom MCP I created for a few months, and hosted on Railway. TBH, Tripit uses OAUTH 1.0 and Poke requires 2.0. I ditched all that and taught Poke how to parse and monitor an iCal feed.

Oh, interesting - and useful.
I did a test run but perhaps it was too early as I got:
here's what i'm seeing on your calendar:
- beziers, france (apr 19 - may 7): looks like a big one with flights through philly and dublin, plus rover check-ins for the dog
- sunshine festival (aug 13 - sep 1): camping in scarborough and upton-upon-severn
- spoton conference (sep 7 - sep 11): trip to austin
which I suspect is test data?
