SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill lets users create, list, and remove automated scheduled tasks so periodic checks, reminders, and maintenance commands run reliably during a working session or via cloud triggers when persistence is required.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Create recurring tasks: Convert natural-language intervals into cron expressions and schedule commands via CronCreate after user confirmation.
  • List and remove tasks: Inspect active session-scoped schedules with CronList and delete them with CronDelete, with clear IDs for management.
  • Session vs cloud guidance: Explain when to use session-scoped CronCreate and when to use RemoteTrigger for cloud-persistent scheduling that survives machine sleep or session restarts.
  • Validation and safety: Validate raw cron expressions, warn on high-frequency schedules, and always confirm before performing side effects.

Quick Start

Use the schedule skill to add a recurring PR check by saying: /schedule add "check PRs every 30 minutes" /pr-watch.

FAQPage Schema
How do I schedule recurring tasks in Claude Code using natural language?▼

Scheduling recurring tasks in Claude Code converts natural-language intervals like 'every 30 minutes' into valid cron expressions, then invokes CronCreate after user confirmation to automate periodic checks and reminders.

Can I use RemoteTrigger for cloud-persistent scheduling that survives session restarts?▼

RemoteTrigger enables cloud-persistent scheduling that survives machine sleep or session restarts, unlike session-scoped CronCreate which only runs while the Claude Code session remains active.

What's the best way to validate cron expressions before creating automated commands?▼

Validating cron expressions before creating automated commands involves checking the raw input format, warning on high-frequency schedules, and confirming side effects before invoking CronCreate or RemoteTrigger.

How do I list and remove active scheduled tasks during a working session?▼

Listing and removing active scheduled tasks uses CronList to inspect session-scoped schedules with clear IDs, then CronDelete removes specific tasks after user confirmation.

When should I use session-scoped cron versus cloud triggers for task automation?▼

Session-scoped cron works for periodic checks during active Claude Code sessions, while cloud triggers are needed when scheduled tasks must persist across machine sleep, restarts, or session interruptions.

Does the schedule skill confirm before executing side effects on recurring tasks?▼

The schedule skill always confirms before performing side effects like creating or deleting tasks, validating cron inputs and warning on high-frequency schedules before invoking CronCreate, CronDelete, or RemoteTrigger.
