What you give it

Every field is optional unless marked; sensible defaults do the rest.

Field	Type	What it does	Default
`keywords`	array	Free-text terms searched across the opportunity. Leave empty to watch everything matching the other filters.	`["water quality"]`
`agencies`	array	Grants.gov agency codes, e.g. USDA, DOD, DOC, ED, DOE. Every run logs the codes valid for your search with their counts - copy them from there rather than guessing.	`-`
`eligibilities`	array	Applicant-type codes, e.g. 02 for city or township governments, 25 for others. The run log lists the codes available for your search.	`-`
`fundingCategories`	array	Category codes such as ACA, ENV or HL. Listed in the run log for your search.	`-`
`fundingInstruments`	array	CA (cooperative agreement), G (grant), PC (procurement contract) or O (other).	`-`
`oppStatuses`	array	Which statuses to watch. Default is posted plus forecasted - the two a bidder can act on.	`["posted", "forecasted"]`
`newestFirst`	boolean	Fetch newest postings first. Useful on the free plan: the 5-item cap then keeps the most recent opportunities instead of arbitrary ones.	`False`
`scrapeDetails`	boolean	Adds the description, award ceiling and floor, cost-sharing flag and response date. Costs one extra request per alerted opportunity, so it is off by default. Contact names, emails and phone numbers are never extracted, with or without this setting.	`False`
`alertOn`	string	"new" alerts only on opportunities never seen before. "new-and-updated" also alerts when a seen opportunity changes status or moves its deadline.	`new`
`emitBaseline`	boolean	On the very first run, push everything currently matching. Turn off to start silent and receive only what appears afterwards.	`True`
`maxItems`	integer	Upper bound on rows pushed in one run. Anything over the cap alerts on the next run instead.	`500`
`stateStoreName`	string	Named key-value store holding what this monitor has already seen. Use a different name to run several independent watch profiles.	`grants-gov-monitor-state`
`resetState`	boolean	Discard what this profile has seen and start a fresh baseline. Use after changing filters if you want the new profile re-baselined.	`False`
`reportFailures`	boolean	When a run fails, send the developer the actor name and build, an error category, the error message (truncated) and a one-way hash of your input - so a bug can be fixed without anyone asking you to reproduce it. Your input itself, your results and your identity are never sent, and successful runs send nothing at all. Switch this off and the actor behaves exactly the same.	`True`
