[cron:6dd85dd2-28ce-411f-b2de-8106e314da47 Deal Post - X + Pinterest (every 30 min)] SCHEDULED TASK: Post 1 deal to X and Pinterest.

## CRITICAL: Use the SAFE script (prevents $ shell expansion bugs)
```bash
cd /home/crogers2287/openclaw-workspaces/ghc-marketing
python3 scripts/post_deal_safe.py
```

This script:
- Uses pure Python (no shell $ variable expansion)
- Validates tweets before posting
- Posts to X via Maya VM twikit
- Posts to Pinterest via Maya VM py3-pinterest
- Records in posted_db

## If script fails
Check the error message and report back. DO NOT manually post using shell commands with $.

## If X cookies expired
Run: `ssh maya@maya "DISPLAY=:0 python3 /home/maya/workspace/scripts/extract_x_cookies.py"`
Current time: Monday, February 16th, 2026 — 12:57 PM (UTC)

Return your summary as plain text; it will be delivered automatically. If the task explicitly calls for messaging a specific external recipient, note who/where it should go instead of sending it yourself.

thinking:
This is a scheduled cron job to post a deal to X (Twitter) and Pinterest. The instructions are very clear:

1. Run the safe script: `cd /home/crogers2287/openclaw-workspaces/ghc-marketing && python3 scripts/post_deal_safe.py`
2. This script handles everything - it's designed to prevent the shell expansion bugs mentioned in MEMORY.md
3. Report the results

I should execute this script and report what happens. The task says to return a summary as plain text which will be delivered automatically.

thinking: Still running. Let me check the log to see if there's any output accumulated.

thinking: No output yet. Let me poll again in a moment...


thinking: Still running, which is normal for SSH operations to Maya VM. Let me check the log again to see if there's any accumulated output.


thinking: Hmm, no output yet but the process is still running. This could be SSH connecting to Maya VM. Let me give it a bit more time and check again.


thinking: Let me wait a bit longer and check the log.


thinking: The process is taking longer than expected with no output. Let me poll once more to see if it completes.


thinking: The script is still running. Let me check once more for log output in case it's buffering.

thinking:
Ah, there's an SCP timeout issue when trying to transfer the image to Maya VM. The script successfully:
1. Fetched deals
2. Selected a good deal (RUNmax weighted vest)
3. Built the tweet
4. Validated it
5. Downloaded the image

But failed at step 6 when trying to SCP the image to Maya. This is likely a network/SSH issue.

I should report this error and potentially troubleshoot the Maya VM connection.

text:
**❌ Deal posting FAILED - SCP timeout**

**Progress:**
- ✅ Fetched 150 deals
- ✅ Selected deal #34881 (RUNmax weighted vest, $19.60, 49% off, score: 52/100)
- ✅ Built and validated tweet
- ✅ Downloaded image
- ❌ **FAILED**: SCP timeout when copying image to Maya VM

**Error:** `scp` to `maya@maya` timed out after 30 seconds

**Troubleshooting needed:**

exec

command: ping -c 2 maya


text: Command still running (session crisp-river, pid 1777758). Use process (list/poll/log/write/kill/clear/remove) for follow-up.

sessionId: crisp-river


thinking: Let me check the ping results.


text:
(no output recorded)

Process exited with signal SIGKILL.

ping 2

status: failed


thinking: The ping command was killed. This suggests Maya VM might not be reachable at all. Let me try SSH to see if the VM is up.

exec

command: ssh -o ConnectTimeout=5 maya@maya "hostname"


status: error

tool: exec

error:
ssh: connect to host maya port 22: Connection timed out

Command exited with code 255


thinking:
Maya VM is completely unreachable. SSH connection timed out. This is why the deal posting failed - the VM that hosts the X/Twitter and Pinterest posting scripts is offline or unreachable.

I should report this issue clearly to Chad. The deal was selected and ready to post, but the Maya VM is down.

text:
**🚨 CRITICAL: Maya VM is DOWN**

**Status:**
- Maya VM (`maya@maya`) is unreachable - SSH connection timeout
- Cannot post deals to X or Pinterest without Maya
- Deal #34881 is ready and validated, but cannot be posted

**The deal that was prepared:**
- RUNmax RUNFast RM_20 Pro Weighted Vest (20 lb)
- Price: $19.60 (was $38.84) — 49% OFF
- Quality score: 52/100
- Link: https://gottahavecoups.com/deal/34881

**Action needed:**
1. Bring Maya VM back online
2. OR: Migrate X/Pinterest posting scripts to Fred VM
3. Re-run the cron job once Maya is accessible

**Maya VM hosts:**
- X/Twitter posting (twikit)
- Pinterest posting (py3-pinterest)
- Browser automation cookies
