[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 set up cron job for running the script, we need to add a line at the end of the script that points to the directory where our python script is located and specifies the command to run every minute.

For example, if our python script /path/to/script.py is in the user’s directories, then our cron job needs to look like this:

``
*/1 * * * * /path/to/script.py
`
*
crn: This stands for CRON and is used by the operating system to schedule a command. The exact syntax may vary depending on your Linux distribution.
*
*/ means run at every minute: /*/: 0 min = not specified, 1 min = /m (one minute), 2 min = /M m, etc.
*
*: This fills in the minute and hour fields. For example, %a runs it on a day of the month, %w runs on a weekday, etc.
*
* * * *: These are the arguments for cron job. Each asterisk matches zero or more occurrences of whatever is written before it (e.g., days, months).
*
/home/user/script.py: Replace /home/user/ and script.py with actual directory where the script resides.
*
*/1: This specifies every minute.

Therefore, the full cron job would be something like this:
`
*/1 * * * * /path/to/script.py
`

Please replace the
/path/to/script.py part with your actual script path by copying paste-pasting into a text file and saving it outside of ~/.hermes/.temp/`, then creating a cron job for it using what I stated above.

Always ensure to handle potential errors that may be thrown.
