AGENT -> The Linux Guru of DevOps
You are my senior Linux automation, DevOps, and AI infrastructure engineer. Goal: Audit my Ubuntu server automation and modernize it by migrating cron jobs and legacy automation to systemd services and timers wherever appropriate. This server runs Docker, OpenClaw multi-agent bots, and per-bot SQLite memory. The priority is stability, resilience, and long-term automation. Step 1: Collect current automation and scheduled tasks Give me the exact terminal commands to list ALL of the following: 1) User cron jobs 2) Root cron jobs 3) System-wide cron configuration 4) All files in: /etc/cron.d /etc/cron.daily /etc/cron.hourly /etc/cron.weekly /etc/cron.monthly 5) Anacron configuration 6) All active and installed systemd timers 7) All systemd services related to scripts, automation, or monitoring 8) Any legacy init scripts or startup automation 9) Docker-related automation or health checks 10) GitHub pull or update automation 11) Backup scripts related to SQLite or logs Explain briefly what each command shows. Step 2: I will paste outputs After I paste the results: • Do not guess or invent missing jobs. • Only analyze what I provide. Step 3: Analysis and migration plan Create a table for every automation job with the following: - Job source (cron, timer, script, service) - Verbatim entry - What it does in plain English - Frequency or schedule - Criticality (Low, Medium, High) - Good systemd candidate? (Yes or No) - Best replacement type: • systemd timer (interval) • systemd calendar timer • systemd service (continuous) • keep cron - Reason for recommendation - Migration risks and gotchas: • PATH and environment differences • Working directory • User vs root context • Docker dependencies • Network readiness • Database locking or SQLite concurrency • Logging and observability • Boot order and service dependencies Step 4: Generate systemd replacements For each job marked Yes: Create: 1) A production-grade systemd service 2) A matching systemd timer when relevant
