The `regro-cf-autotick-bot <https://github.com/regro/autotick-bot>`__ continuously searches on a loop for any PyPI releases, GitHub releases, and any other sources of versions when any updates are released. The source code that gets executed in the loop comes from the `cf-scripts repository <https://github.com/regro/cf-scripts>`__, which contains the code to detect versions and submit PRs. Visit `cf-scripts <https://regro.github.io/cf-scripts/index.html>`__ to read more about it.

The bot creates updates via inspection of the upstream release and will always update the ``source`` section and build version in the `recipe metadata <https://docs.conda.io/projects/conda-build/en/latest/resources/define-metadata.html#>`_.

For `Grayskull <https://github.com/conda-incubator/grayskull>`_-compatible recipes, the bot can also be configured to update the recipe's requirements, which may significantly assist in maintaining packages with specific dependency pins.

Sometimes the bot may take several hours to search for these updates. You can also check `status of version updates <https://conda-forge.org/status/#version_updates>`__ for all the pending version updates. These version updates are pending either because an updated version was found, but a PR wasn't opened yet, or because the bot might have had an error while making the PR.

If you can't find a version here, then the chances are that the bot couldn't find it either.
