[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 — 5:57 AM (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. Use the SAFE script at `/home/crogers2287/openclaw-workspaces/ghc-marketing/scripts/post_deal_safe.py`
2. This prevents shell expansion bugs with $ signs in prices
3. The script handles validation, posting to both platforms, and recording in the database

I should just run the script and report the results. No need for complex thinking here - just execute and summarize.

action: log


text: (no output yet)


thinking: No output yet. Let me wait a bit longer and poll again.


thinking: The script is taking some time. This is normal for posting to social media - it needs to connect to Maya VM, load cookies, post to both X and Pinterest. Let me wait a bit more and check again.


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


thinking:
The process is running but producing no output yet. This could mean:
1. It's still loading/connecting
2. It's waiting on network calls to Maya
3. There might be an issue

Let me wait a bit longer and poll again.


thinking: Let me try checking the log again with a limit to see if anything has appeared.


thinking: The script has been running for a while with no output. Let me poll one more time to see if it has completed.

thinking:
Ah, there's an issue! The script is timing out when trying to scp (secure copy) the image file to Maya VM. The scp command is hanging after 30 seconds.

This suggests:
1. Network connectivity issue to Maya VM
2. Maya VM might be down or not responding
3. SSH connection issue

Let me kill this process and check if Maya is reachable.

action: kill


text: Killed session briny-cloud.

status: failed


thinking: Now let me check if Maya VM is reachable via ping or SSH.

exec

command: ssh -o ConnectTimeout=10 maya@maya "echo 'Maya is up'"


text: Command still running (session faint-meadow, pid 1538691). Use process (list/poll/log/write/kill/clear/remove) for follow-up.

sessionId: faint-meadow


thinking: SSH is hanging too. Let me wait to see if it times out.


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

Process exited with code 255.


thinking:
Maya VM is down or unreachable. SSH connection timed out. This is blocking the deal posting workflow.I should:
1. Report this issue to Chad
2. Note that the deal was selected (34756 - Natrol Kids Melatonin Gummies)
3. Explain that Maya VM needs to be investigated/restarted

This is a critical infrastructure issue - the entire social media posting pipeline depends on Maya being available.

**🚨 DEAL POSTING FAILED - Maya VM Unreachable**

**Issue:** SSH connection to Maya VM timed out. Cannot post to X or Pinterest.

**Deal queued but not posted:**
- Deal #34756: Natrol Kids Melatonin Gummies (90-count, $5.83)
- Tweet validated ✓
- Image downloaded ✓
- **Failed at:** SCP transfer to Maya (30s timeout)

**Root cause:** Maya VM (`maya@maya`) is not responding to SSH connections.

**Next steps needed:**
1. Check if Maya VM is running (possible crash/reboot needed)
2. Verify Tailscale connectivity to Maya
3. Once Maya is back online, manually retry: `python3 scripts/post_deal_safe.py`

The deal remains in the priority queue and will retry on the next scheduled run (30 minutes).
