I think it wouldn't hurt to do some research/trial&error yourself in your own script given the hints by MadeInGermany. To put them a bit more bluntly:
As the clear command is not found, try with absolut path or use the given alternative.
As the ]] leads to problems, try an alternative.
As sh may be a bit limited, try another shell.
