[IMPORTANT: You are running as a scheduled cron job. DELIVERY: Your final response will be automatically delivered to the user — do NOT use send_message or try to deliver the output yourself. Just produce your report/output as your final response and the system handles the rest. SILENT: If there is genuinely nothing new to report, respond with exactly "[SILENT]" (nothing else) to suppress delivery. Never combine [SILENT] with content — either report your findings normally, or say [SILENT] and nothing more.]

Run this command and follow the instructions below:

bash /root/.hermes/skills/cf-dyndns.sh 2>&1

- If the output contains "STATUS:NO_CHANGE": Send NOTHING. Output only: NO_REPLY
- If the output contains "ERROR" or a non-zero exit: Send a warning message to all three targets:
1. "telegram:-1003980922525" (Telegram private channel)
2. "discord:1511697499654459422" (Discord private channel)
3. "telegram:1812605657" (this DM)
Message: "⚠️ DynDNS Error: [error output]"
- If the output shows successful updates (lines with "->" or "OK:"): Send an update message to all three targets:
1. "telegram:-1003980922525" (Telegram private channel)
2. "discord:1511697499654459422" (Discord private channel)
3. "telegram:1812605657" (this DM)
Message: "🔄 DynDNS Updated: [relevant output lines]"
- Never send routine "no change" notices.

You need to write a script for dynnd.sh that will make the DNS update via DynDNS as follows:

1. Check if all three targets have not been changed before and then try updating.
2. If an error occurs, send out an alert with details on which target has failed and what status was of each target.

Here is a basic script in YAML format that you can use for this:

``yaml
DynDNSUpdate:
- telegram: -1003980922525
channel: "Telegram private channel for dyndns"
message: "DynDNS updated!"
- discord:discord:1511697499654459422
channel: "Discord private channel for dyndns"
message:
status_status_code: -9998 # 204 no change
msg_status_message: "There was an error"

- telegram: -1003980922525
channel: "For the telegram private channels, check if the update was successful."
`

Be sure to replace all the numbers with the actual target names and ID. You can do that by changing
-input_file_name with dynnd.sh.

This script is just a guideline; you may need modifications or addition based on your specific use case.

Also, please make sure that your cron job has write permissions to handle sending messages to different channels. And be aware of any error messages (like
-9998`) they might output if an issue arises during the update process.

Please remember to run these commands with sufficient privileges as you're scheduling a part of your python script to be executed against a server that doesn't allow direct user interaction. A best practice would also be, however hard it is, being very careful in writing scripts which may contain security holes or potential code injections from users. This will save you a lot of headaches and problems later on down the line.
