SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Developers building agents on Golem in Scala need a way to defer method calls to a later time without blocking the current execution, such as for reminders, retries, or delayed processing.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Scheduled Invocation: Call .scheduleAt(when) on any remote proxy method to enqueue it for execution at a specific future time.
  • Datetime Helpers: Use golem.Datetime.afterSeconds(...) to express delays like 60 seconds or 1 hour from now.
  • Cancelable Scheduling: Use scheduleCancelableAt to obtain a CancellationToken that can cancel the pending invocation before it fires.
  • Use Case: Schedule a daily report agent to generate a summary one hour from now, or implement retry-with-backoff by scheduling a retry after a failure.

Quick Start

Ask the assistant to schedule a Scala Golem agent method call to run at a future time using scheduleAt and Datetime.afterSeconds.

FAQPage Schema
How do I schedule a future agent invocation in Scala Golem?▼

Call .scheduleAt(when) on any method of the remote agent proxy, passing a golem.Datetime value such as Datetime.afterSeconds(60). The call returns immediately and the target agent executes the method when the scheduled time arrives.

How to cancel a scheduled agent call in Golem Scala?▼

Use the scheduleCancelableAt variant instead of scheduleAt, which returns a Future[CancellationToken]. Call .cancel() on the token before the scheduled time to prevent the invocation from firing.

Does scheduleAt support method arguments in Golem Scala agents?▼

Yes, pass the method parameters first followed by the when parameter, for example reporter.generateReport.scheduleAt("summary", when = Datetime.afterSeconds(3600)). The arguments are captured and delivered when the invocation fires.

What time helpers does golem.Datetime provide for scheduling?▼

The golem.Datetime type provides afterSeconds(n) to express a time n seconds from now, such as Datetime.afterSeconds(60) for one minute or Datetime.afterSeconds(3600) for one hour.

When should I use scheduled invocations in Golem agents?▼

Use scheduled invocations for periodic tasks by scheduling the next run at the end of each invocation, delayed processing after a cooling-off period, timed reminders, and retry-with-backoff after failures.
