Partial A notifier is simple, but reliably polling many reservation systems (Recreation.gov and dozens of state park systems) every 15 seconds requires maintaining fragile scrapers and anti-bot workarounds at scale.
What it would actually take: The core is a scheduler that polls each booking site, diffs availability, and sends SMS, push, and email alerts, which a vibe-coded stack can handle. The hard part is the per-site integrations, which break whenever a state changes its system, plus rate limits, IP blocking, and the cost of frequent polling. Keeping it running across 34 states and Canada requires ongoing maintenance and reliability engineering.
