Apologies that I missed this earlier, Thomas.  I took a look at this now,
and it does do very much what I want.  I have been trying to find something
event-based, rather than polling, but this is a good tool if I go that
route.  Thank you.

But, I do notice something looking at it and my openbsd system; the
command-set that produces “publicIPv6Net” seems wrong.  Specifically,
it runs “sort -u” on the networks and then “tail -n 1”, proportedly
because newer networks are listed at the bottom.

First, sort loses ordering.  Second, on my system the last address
output by "route -n show -inet6 | grep ::/64” is not the current
one.  Actually, that list seems also to be sorted lexographically
even before running sort.  I think “route show” lists them in
address-order, not time-order.
