SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill allows the agent to set self-reminders for asynchronous tasks, ensuring follow-ups happen without manual intervention or blocking the agent's session.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Agent Self-Timers: Schedule internal reminders that inject messages into the agent's session.
  • Asynchronous Task Management: Ideal for follow-ups after spawning workers or escalating tasks, preventing the need for bash sleep.
  • Use Case: After initiating a long-running worker process, set a timer for 5 minutes to check its status, ensuring the agent doesn't get stuck waiting.

Quick Start

Set a timer for 90 seconds with the message "check worker results".

FAQPage Schema
How do I set asynchronous task reminders without blocking the agent session?▼

Asynchronous task reminders use a daemon API to schedule and inject follow-up messages into the agent session, preventing blocking operations by replacing manual waits like bash sleep with non-blocking timers.

Why should I avoid using bash sleep for long-running worker follow-ups?▼

Using bash sleep blocks the agent session, causing it to get stuck waiting. Self-reminder timers prevent this by scheduling non-blocking callbacks to check worker status after specified delays.

How do I schedule a delayed check on a spawned worker process?▼

Set a timer with a specified delay and message, such as scheduling a 90-second timer with a check worker results message. The daemon API manages the countdown and injects the reminder asynchronously.

Can I snooze or cancel active agent self-timers?▼

Yes, the timer daemon API supports listing, acknowledging, snoozing, and cancelling active timers, providing full lifecycle management for asynchronous task follow-ups and scheduled reminders.

What is the best way to manage multiple asynchronous follow-up reminders?▼

The timer daemon API provides dedicated commands for listing active timers, acknowledging triggered reminders, and managing task follow-ups, ensuring non-blocking scheduling for multiple concurrent asynchronous operations.
