Use hackmd-track.js (in scripts/) to detect document changes efficiently.
Track a Note
node scripts/hackmd-track.js add <noteId>Check for Changes
# Single note - outputs content only if changed
node scripts/hackmd-track.js changes <noteId>
# All tracked notes
node scripts/hackmd-track.js changes --all
# JSON output for parsing
node scripts/hackmd-track.js changes <noteId> --jsonManage Tracking
node scripts/hackmd-track.js list # Show tracked notes
node scripts/hackmd-track.js remove <noteId> # Stop tracking
node scripts/hackmd-track.js reset <noteId> # Reset (next check shows as changed)How It Works
hackmd-track.js addstores note'slastChangedAttimestamphackmd-track.js changescompares currentlastChangedAtwith stored value- If changed: outputs content and updates stored timestamp
- If unchanged: outputs nothing (use
--verbosefor status)
State stored in ./.hackmd/tracked-notes.json (current working directory)

When using --output json, notes include:
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
lastChangedAt | Unix timestamp of last modification |
lastChangeUser | {name, userPath, photo} of last editor |
