What do the "What changed?" and "Skipped" chips mean?

Features & Capabilities

Change & Skip Chips

Chips are small labels the Cardamon Amazon Relay bot adds to loads on the board so you can see, at a glance, what changed and why a load was passed over. There are two families of chips:

1. "What changed?" chips

When the bot flags a load, a chip explains what it spotted. Colors mirror Amazon's own highlight so they look native:

  • Green chip — the payout increased on an existing load.
  • Red-tinted chip — the payout decreased.
  • Sparkle chip — a brand-new load just appeared on the board.
2. "Skipped" chips
  • "Skipped: …" — a flagged load didn't match one of your filters, and the chip names the exact rule that blocked it, for example "Skipped: stops > 2", "Skipped: stem < 45m", or "Skipped: payout < 20". This works in regular mode too — any load your filters skip gets a chip.
  • "Skipped by you" — a muted tag that appears when you press Start again without booking a flagged load, so you can see what you've already passed on. It resets when you change filters or reload.

Behind the chips: payout-change detection uses a short-memory cache with a 5-minute freshness window, so the bot stops on real increases even after a Start/Stop cycle — and won't fire on stale ones. The whole matching card is highlighted with a thin red outline and a sky-blue background so it's impossible to miss.
