Skipped (last 24h noise / no fit): SF Make-a-thon Jul 30 $7k — SF IRL, event full (https://luma.com/b0l7tzxd · x.com/jonaasw1/status/2081766412649972047). Verse Buildathon next month $1k — too thin (https://x.com/Aderoju_isaac9/status/2081775168519569512). Snowflake CoCo / Agentic Commerce / known Devpost+ETHGlobal+Encode Arc — already tracked; no organizer deadline change on re-check.

Primary sources: Encode/Akindo/Dora list SPA-light; ETHGlobal upcoming = known only; Devpost top = Gemini XPRIZE / Cockroach / DataHub / Arm (known). Major-lab X: no new OpenAI/Anthropic/Google/xAI challenge posts this window.
