Gate repeated work

public sealed class PeriodicCheck
{
    private readonly WaitTimer _timer = new WaitTimer(TimeSpan.FromSeconds(1));

    public void Start() { _timer.Stop(); } // First check is immediately eligible.

    public void Tick()
    {
        if (!_timer.IsFinished) return;
        _timer.Reset();
        // Perform one bounded check here.
    }
}

Requires System and DreamPoeBot.Loki.Common. This is a helper class, not a discoverable plugin: own one instance in your component and call its Start/Tick. The timer is a field, so it survives between ticks. Stop makes this timer eligible; it does not suspend the component.
