RR Reboot Report#

Detect unexpected reboots and track boot history. Useful for security monitoring — flags when a system restarts unexpectedly.

Quick Start#

bash

# Check for unexpected reboot (run at startup or on first heartbeat)
bash {baseDir}/scripts/check-reboot.sh

# View boot history
bash {baseDir}/scripts/check-reboot.sh --history

# Reset state (mark current boot as known)
bash {baseDir}/scripts/check-reboot.sh --reset

How It Works#

1. On first run, records current boot time to state file
2. On subsequent runs, compares current boot time with last known
3. If boot time changed unexpectedly → alerts
4. State file: ~/.reboot-check-state (customizable with --state)

Output#

text

STATUS: CLEAN       — No reboot since last check
STATUS: REBOOTED    — System rebooted since last check
STATUS: FIRST_RUN   — First time running, recording boot time

Integration#

Auto-Alert via Cron (Recommended)#

For automatic Telegram alerts on reboot without needing the agent active:

1. Create config file (one-time setup):

bash

cat > ~/.rr-reboot-config << 'EOF'
BOT_TOKEN=your_bot_token_here
CHAT_ID=your_chat_id_here
EOF
chmod 600 ~/.rr-reboot-config

2. Add to crontab:

bash

@reboot /path/to/scripts/reboot-alert.sh

The reboot-alert.sh helper script:

• Detects reboots automatically
• Reads credentials from ~/.rr-reboot-config (user-created, isolated config)
• Sends alert via Telegram Bot API directly
• Waits for network at boot
• Resets state after alert

No credentials stored in the script or skill files. All user-provided.

Heartbeat Integration#

bash

# In heartbeat script
RESULT=$(bash check-reboot.sh)
[[ "$RESULT" == *"REBOOTED"* ]] && echo "ALERT: Unexpected reboot!"

Options#

• --state FILE — State file path (default: ~/.reboot-check-state)
• --history — Show recorded boot history
• --reset — Reset state to current boot
• --json — Output as JSON
