When asked for a dad joke, run this Python one-liner in a bash tool call to fetch a single random joke from HuggingFace with minimal data transfer:

python3 -c "
import random, json
from urllib.request import urlopen
offset = random.randint(0, 51999)
url = f'https://datasets-server.huggingface.co/rows?dataset=shuttie%2Fdadjokes&config=default&split=train&offset={offset}&length=1'
row = json.loads(urlopen(url).read())['rows'][0]['row']
print(row['question'])
print('---')
print(row['response'])
"

Then present the joke naturally — the question is the setup and response is the punchline. Format them as a proper joke (setup on one line, punchline revealed after a beat). Feel free to add a groan emoji or light commentary, but keep it brief.

If the fetch fails (network error, etc.), apologize and tell a joke from memory instead.
