FedReg Tracker + Poke: ask in your texts what federal rules are open and when comments close

Once the address is added, text Poke a plain question: which proposed rules on my topic are open for comment right now? The tracker labels each document as proposed, final or a Public Inspection filing that is not yet published, so the answer does not mix them up.

Searching works without a key. A free key adds watchlists and alerts. Ask Poke to keep the answer short and to include the official link for each rule.

The tracker keeps comment and effective dates as calendar dates and sends its own reminders at 30, 14, 7 and 1 days. If a later notice extends a comment period, it records the extension and keeps the original date.

You can also ask Poke to remind you a few days before a deadline you care about. Poke's documentation lists reminders among what it does. Treat that as a second nudge, and check the date on the notice itself.

Poke's homepage says it handles tasks according to your schedule and uses your integrations to help at the right time. You could ask it to check your topics each morning and text you only when something new is open for comment.

Whether Poke will run that check by itself and reach the tracker has not been tested. Try it with one topic, see what arrives, and keep asking by hand if it does not.

This route works today without any connection. Sign up for the tracker's free email alerts, then forward an alert to Poke and ask for a text summary and a reminder before the comment deadline.

Poke's documentation says it reads and drafts email. Forwarding is something you do per alert, so it is a way to read an alert in your texts, not a promise that Poke reacts to each email on its own.
