Advanced Cron

The Advanced Cron skill provides a full-featured task scheduler for your AI agent, going beyond simple interval timers to support complex cron expressions, timezone-aware scheduling, and sophisticated error handling. Create schedules using natural language ('every weekday at 8am Eastern') or standard cron syntax, with the agent confirming its interpretation before saving. Tasks can be any agent action or skill invocation — send a daily briefing email, check API health and alert on failure, generate a weekly report, or sync data between services. Dependency chains allow tasks to trigger other tasks on completion or failure. Missed task handling is configurable — skip, run immediately on next start, or run all missed instances in order. Error budgets track how often a scheduled task fails and disable it if a threshold is breached, preventing noisy repeated failures. A schedule viewer lists all active jobs with their next run time, last run time, and status. Logs retain the last 100 runs per job with output and error details. Integrates with Webhook skill to expose a trigger endpoint for external scheduling systems.
