Evidence

  • Why this level

    Summary

    Cron / system automation is used to schedule commands on virtual machines, especially around business scripts, automation bots, and operations tasks. L2 is deliberately cautious: the skill is real, but direct public evidence of crontabs and scheduled scripts remains limited.

  • Current ceiling

    Summary

    A higher level would require documenting versioned crontabs, logs, monitoring, alerting, error recovery, and a clear separation between one-off tasks and critical recurring tasks.

  • Scheduled commands on VMs

    No source

    Scripts and commands scheduled through cronjobs are used on virtual machines to automate recurring operations.

  • Data collection bot on VPS

    No source

    The ERON Santé experience documents a Selenium data collection bot running in production on an Ubuntu VPS, a context consistent with scheduled automation.

  • Installer and operations scripts

    No source

    Installer scripts and operations commands provide the basis for recurring system automation, even though public crontab details still need to be formalized.
