Popped up at 4am in Japan on the Software update pane, red circle on the icon in the dock. Time difference related?
An iOS update also appeared on my oldser iPhone 12 mini, update finished already, very quick this time.
Edit: Forgot to say, I am on the Developer's beta program. And as it is an RC, it probably won'T show up if you're not on the Public or Developer's program.

Yes, 24G812 is RC3.
15.7.8 has not been officially released so far.

I asked another "AI" chatbot and it generated a simpler code. I'll post it if it works when a new Sequoia update is released.

Isn't this the same as "Visualping" in effect; the problem is that the update page gets a few alterations which don't include Sequoia and I don't think there is any "line" that can be watched as a new update gets a new line?

If I understand correctly, you are saying that Visualping is an online service that doesn’t work for the “Apple security releases” page. So, the difference between Visualping and a script would be that a script runs locally on the Mac and, hopefully, works 🙂

Visualping works well but all it does it pick up any change to the page; so it should generate an e-mail when there is a Sequoia update but in the meantime I've had two mails about other updates. So what does the script you advised do exactly to just fetch Sequoia update advice?

PS I gather that getting onto the OS 27 beta programme works in that on an Intel device it won't send anything to it regarding updates.
