golem-recurring-task-ts

What problem does it solve?

Automates the execution of recurring (cron-like) tasks within a Golem agent by self-scheduling future invocations, ensuring durability and resilience.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Self-Scheduling: Allows an agent to schedule its own next run, enabling periodic tasks such as polling, cleanup, or heartbeats.
• Error Handling: Supports exponential backoff and cancellation mechanisms for robust operation in failure scenarios.
• Use Case: For example, implementing a periodic health check system that runs every minute and adapts its interval based on success or failure, or a heartbeat monitor that signals activity at regular intervals.

Quick Start

Explain to the user how to implement a recurring task that runs every specific interval, how to incorporate cancellation, and how to adapt delays based on success or failure.
