I need a reliable piece of software that can watch my target website around the clock and snap up visa-appointment slots the moment they become available. The two actions I care about most are choosing the desired time slot and confirming the appointment; form-filling is handled elsewhere, so your code can skip that step completely. Here is the flow I have in mind: the tool logs in with my credentials, polls for new visa-slot openings at a configurable interval, automatically selects the first matching slot, confirms it, and then notifies me immediately (email, SMS, or Telegram—whichever is easiest for you to wire up). Stability is more important than flashy visuals: a command-line script or small web dashboard is fine as long as it runs unattended on a VPS or desktop and keeps detailed logs. Because sites often change layout or add bot-protection, please build with a framework that can be updated quickly—Selenium, Playwright, or Puppeteer are all acceptable. If a captcha appears, let me know your preferred workaround so we can discuss API keys or manual fallback. Acceptance criteria: • Script reliably selects and confirms a test appointment on the live site in front of me during hand-off. • All configurable settings (login, polling interval, date/time preferences, notification details) live in a single, clearly commented file or UI. • A short README covers setup, dependencies, and how to add new embassies if the URL structure changes. • Source code is delivered in a private repository or zip, with no hard-coded personal data. If this sounds straightforward to you and you have recent experience scraping or automating appointment portals, I’m ready to start right away.
