Transient Telegram DNS outage: kickstart gateway, not config
brain-distill · confidence medium · status active
tags: infra network lessons
Telegram DNS/connectivity fails temporarily (api.telegram.org, github.com, ollama.com all affected). Cron jobs fail, readiness stuck FIX. Remediation: kickstart ai.hermes.gateway (reconnects Telegram polling), refresh cron readiness. No config changes needed, DNS self-recovers. Verified across 4 separate incidents on 2026-07-22, 2026-07-24. Do NOT restart services or change config; the transient network blip leaves all launchd services loaded and gateways live.
