[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.

To run the Cron job [CRON] 0 * * * bash /root/.hermes/skills/cf-dyndns.sh as a scheduled job, simply copy and paste this command into your crontab file in the root directory of your server:

``
# Run the following command at the very top as cron: no changes here.
`

Explanation:
1.
0 * * *: This syntax means "at minute, day hour" every 24 hours.

2.
bash /root/.hermes/skills/cf-dyndns.sh: It is a script that you'll paste into your crontab file to start the DynDNS service. The /root/.hermes refers to the root user's Hermes installation directory, where cron jobs are usually found.

3.
no changes here.: Since this job simply runs an existing bash script and doesn't perform any significant operation in the absence of other requirements or inputs (as requested), including "STATUS:NO_CHANGE"; "ERROR" not sent as message to specified contacts; or successful updates shows no value in providing a reply.

**Reminder:** Ensure that
root is properly unlocked by adding your username with hgrp=h permissions. For example:
`bash
sudo chgrp -R %h% root
sudo chmod o=r,go= $username%.hermes:/var/lib/openssh/limits
`

However, keep in mind the need of permission for the entire system to write to this file, and if that's not granted with proper user permissions or another method that provides such capabilities.

Always remember to only run bash scripts as root. This is a security measure to prevent potential issues due to unintended operations in certain circumstances like using cron by users without correct setup which could open multiple shells across different credentials. For the specific task this line
no changes here.`, you can ignore it entirely.
