FAQPage Schema
How do I schedule automated tasks using cron expressions?▼

To schedule automated tasks, you can create new cron jobs that trigger either static text messages or agent interactions at specified times. This Skill manages the creation and execution of these recurring tasks via the command-line interface.

Can I pause and resume scheduled tasks without deleting them?▼

Yes, you can manage scheduled tasks by pausing and resuming them. This allows you to temporarily halt automated task execution or agent interactions without losing the original cron job configuration.

How do I view all my scheduled cron jobs?▼

You can view all your scheduled cron jobs by using the list command. This provides a complete overview of your automated tasks, allowing you to check their status and scheduled execution times.

Do I need to specify UTC time for scheduling cron jobs?▼

Yes, scheduling cron jobs requires precise UTC time specification. This ensures that your automated tasks and agent interactions are triggered accurately regardless of local time zone differences.

What is the difference between scheduling a static message and triggering an agent action?▼

Scheduling a static message sends a fixed text output at a specified time, while triggering an agent action initiates a dynamic process where the agent checks updates or performs tasks and reports back based on the cron expression.
