I've provided @Magioladitis with two example functions for use in a custom module to get current categories of a page, and secondly the categories a page would have with its new article text, both using MediaWiki API calls. This would enable skip before and/or after checks based on categories. Over to Magioladitis to integrate with bot scripts and test. If these work suitably then as a minimum we'll document the functions as example custom modules on the custom modules page.
