Overview

Staying ahead of generative NFT drop schedules across different Discord servers, timezones, and chains is difficult for community members. The Clyr Mint Radar (MintRadarService) automates this workflow: it ingests alpha drop schedules directly from Discord alpha channels, standardizes chaotic timestamps into local timezones, classifies multi-chain metadata, and delivers structured daily intelligence cards directly into WhatsApp communities.

Data Enrichment & Normalization

When raw mint schedules are ingested, the MintRadarService executes several transformation passes:

1. Automated Unix Timestamp Conversion

Discord schedules frequently use dynamic unix time tags (e.g. <t:1700000000:t> or <t:1700000000:F>). The engine parses the epoch seconds, adjusts for daylight savings, and converts the times into standard West Africa Time (WAT / UTC+1) and UTC for crystal-clear comprehension.

2. Multi-Chain Badge Decoration

Projects are mapped to their native blockchain with visual chain badges:
  • ⟠ Ethereum
  • 🔵 Base
  • ◎ Solana
  • 🟣 Polygon / MATIC
  • 🟡 Binance Smart Chain (BNB)
  • 🔶 Arbitrum One
  • 🔺 Avalanche (AVAX)
Hyperlinks within the announcement are classified and labeled with contextual icons:
  • 🐦 X / Twitter: Official project account or spaces link
  • 🌊 OpenSea: Official verified collection or drop page
  • ✅ Whitelist Checker: Official portal to verify wallet eligibility
  • 👾 Discord: Official Discord server invite
  • 🌐 Website: Project homepage or mint dApp

Output Card Format

Here is how a processed drop schedule renders inside WhatsApp:

Delivery Mechanisms

1. On-Demand Retrieval (/mints)

Any group member can query the current day’s active drop schedule at any time:

2. Automated Scheduled Broadcasts (/mint-on)

Group administrators can subscribe the group to automatic morning drops. Every morning at 08:00 WAT (07:00 UTC), the background cron service fetches the active schedule and posts it to all subscribed groups.

Admin Dispatcher (Sentinel Dashboard)

Community administrators with access to the Sentinel Web Dashboard (http://localhost:3334) can manage the schedule visually:
  1. Schedule Staging: Paste raw text or Discord JSON embeds directly into the dashboard editor.
  2. Real-Time Card Preview: Inspect the live WhatsApp layout and link resolutions before publishing.
  3. One-Click Multi-Group Broadcast: Dispatch the validated schedule across all groups simultaneously with built-in anti-spam spacing.
