here is my script for adjusting screen temp as the time changes.

What are some of your scripts or reasons for doing scripts?
e, the values im adjusting still.  probably the day time values will be adjusted to be cooler.

#!/bin/bash
# Check if xsct is installed
if ! command -v xsct &> /dev/null
then
    echo "Error: xsct not found."
    exit 1
fi

# Retrieve the current hour (0-23) and adjust the temperature accordingly
current_hour=$(date +%H)
current_min=$(date +%M)

while true; do

new_temperature=4000

if (( $current_hour < 12 )); then
if (( $current_min < 14)); then
    new_temperature=6500
elif (( $current_min < 29)); then
    new_temperature=6400

# Call xsct to adjust the screen temperature
echo "Adjusting screen temperature to $new_temperature K."
xsct $new_temperature
sleep 150
done

Added later 10 h 47 min 04 s:
there is an edit to under the line "if (( $current_hour < 12 )); then"

it should have a line that says "new_temperature=6500"
