## When are tokens from new sets ready to be added?
Scryfall is the primary source of spoilers for new sets and generally post their full preview of the set 2 weeks before release. You will be able to tell as their homepage will change to say "[Name of Set] Full Preview" as a new news post under the search bar. The tokens are usually the last thing to be updated and all of them may not be available for a day or two after the full preview of the rest of the cards goes up.
It is important to make sure that the set is fully up on Scyfall before adding it to the tokens file to avoid missing tokens (or cards that make them) and having to add them in later. Generally, you can do this by looking up the set on MTG wiki and checking how many tokens and cards are expected to be printed in the set. Remember that there is no rush to add new sets and it is better to put in a complete and error-free addition later than an incomplete addition earlier. Cockatrice is provided as a free service and is maintained by volunteers; you do not owe anyone your time.
