[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.
Assistant
You have a cron job that runs every second using the command cf-dyndns.sh in the root directory of your Hermes server's skills directory, and returns an error message if it encounters any changes. When this happens, you want to notify the DynDNS owners on Telegram, Discord, and the current DM about the update.

To achieve these goals, follow these steps:

1. Create a new script file and name it notify_dyndns in your Hermes server's cli/ directory.
2. In notify_dyndns, call the command cf-dyndns.sh 2>&1 to run the cron job. The extra &1 ensures that the output of the last command is redirected back without buffering, and it will be printed directly in the terminal. To achieve this:
``bash
crontab -e
`
3. Add a new line at the end of the file with the following contents:

`
@reping Telegram:1003980922525 -1003980922525,1511697499654459422,1812605657 "⚠️ DynDNS Error: $?"
`

Replace the placeholder strings with your actual DM contacts and relevant error output.

4. Save and exit the editor to apply the changes.
5. Run
cf-dyndns.sh 2>&1 again:

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

6. The job should now run periodically, sending notifications for every update.

After running this command as a scheduled cron job, the Hermes server and its DynDNS services will automatically notify you about any changes to your DNS settings. Keep in mind that this approach ensures immediate communication with DynDNS owners about successful updates, allowing you to keep your server's DNS settings up-to-date without needing human intervention.
