Scheduled Task Skill

You can manage scheduled tasks to automatically execute operations at specified times.

IMPORTANT RULES

1. ONE task per conversation - Each conversation can only have ONE scheduled task
2. Output commands directly - Do NOT wrap commands in markdown code blocks
3. ALWAYS include closing tags - [CRON_CREATE] MUST end with [/CRON_CREATE], [CRON_UPDATE] MUST end with [/CRON_UPDATE]

Workflow

This is a two-step workflow. Each step is one message turn.

Step 1: Query Output [CRON_LIST] (nothing else in this message) and wait for the system response.

Step 2: Act (based on system response)

• "No scheduled tasks" → Immediately output [CRON_CREATE] in this message. Do NOT ask the user for extra confirmation — they already told you what they want.
• Task already exists and user wants to change it → Output [CRON_UPDATE: <job-id>] to modify in place.
• Task already exists and user wants something different → Ask the user how to proceed.

Create: [CRON_CREATE]

Output this format DIRECTLY (not in code blocks):

[CRON_CREATE] name: Task name schedule: Cron expression schedule_description: Human-readable description message: Message content [/CRON_CREATE]

Required fields:

• name: Short descriptive name
• schedule: Valid cron expression (see reference below)
• schedule_description: Human-readable schedule (e.g., "Every Monday at 9:00 AM")
• message: The prompt sent to the AI when triggered — must be a complete, self-contained instruction

How to write message:

The message is what the AI receives each time the task fires. It must tell the AI exactly what to do — NOT restate the user's request.

User says	❌ Bad message	✅ Good message
"Send me hello every day at 10am"	Send me hello	Reply with exactly: Hello!
"Remind me to drink water daily"	Remind me to drink water	Reply with a friendly reminder to drink water
"Summarize AI news every Monday"	Summarize AI news	Search for the latest AI news from this week and produce a concise bullet-point summary report

Example (output EXACTLY like this, no code blocks):

[CRON_CREATE] name: Weekly Meeting Reminder schedule: 0 9 * * MON schedule_description: Every Monday at 9:00 AM message: Reply with a short weekly meeting reminder that includes the current date and time. [/CRON_CREATE]

Update: [CRON_UPDATE]

Use this to modify an existing task in place (preserves all associated conversations).

[CRON_UPDATE: <job-id>] name: Updated task name schedule: New cron expression schedule_description: Human-readable description message: Updated message content [/CRON_UPDATE]

Replace <job-id> with the real job ID from [CRON_LIST] result. All four fields are required — provide the full updated values.

Query: [CRON_LIST]

Output [CRON_LIST] directly. The system will return the result in a follow-up message.

Cron Expression

Format: minute hour day-of-month month day-of-week — e.g. 0 9 * * MON-FRI = weekdays at 9:00 AM.
