Schedule recurring tasks for your AI agent without wrestling cron syntax.

Features

• Natural language scheduling ("every 2 hours", "daily at 9am")
• List, pause, resume, and delete scheduled tasks
• Execution history and failure tracking
• Timezone-aware scheduling

Usage

Schedule a task

bash

skill-platform cron add --every "2h" --task "Check inbox and summarize"
skill-platform cron add --at "09:00" --daily --task "Morning briefing"
skill-platform cron add --every "30m" --task "Monitor API health"

Manage tasks

bash

skill-platform cron list          # Show all scheduled tasks
skill-platform cron pause <id>    # Pause a task
skill-platform cron resume <id>   # Resume a task
skill-platform cron delete <id>   # Remove a task
skill-platform cron logs <id>     # View execution history

Common Patterns

Heartbeat optimization: Instead of running expensive checks every heartbeat, use cron for specific intervals:

text

skill-platform cron add --every "4h" --task "Check email inbox"
skill-platform cron add --every "1h" --task "Monitor social mentions"
skill-platform cron add --daily --at "08:00" --task "Generate daily briefing"

Health checks:

text

skill-platform cron add --every "5m" --task "Ping API endpoints and alert on failure"

Tips

• Batch related checks into single cron jobs to save API costs
• Use --model flag to run cron tasks on cheaper models
• Set --timeout to prevent runaway tasks
