FAQPage Schema
How do I schedule recurring tasks to run automatically?

To schedule recurring tasks, you create a cron task by defining a name, a prompt, and a cron schedule. The task then executes automatically at the specified daily, hourly, or weekly intervals.

What is automated task scheduling and how does it work here?

Automated task scheduling stores task prompts locally and maintains a schedules file to trigger executions. It integrates with a WebUI to manage list, create, update, delete, and run operations for your recurring tasks.

Can I modify or disable a scheduled task after creating it?

Yes, you can modify or disable scheduled tasks after creation. The system exposes a unified API allowing you to update prompts, change schedules, and toggle tasks between enabled and disabled states.

How do I review run histories and logs for automated tasks?

You review run histories and logs by inspecting the WebUI Task panel. This allows you to monitor execution performance and diagnose any issues with your scheduled cron tasks.

How do I run a scheduled task on demand instead of waiting for the next trigger?

You run a scheduled task on demand by accessing the WebUI Task panel. This bypasses the defined cron schedule, allowing immediate execution of the stored task prompt whenever needed.
