Schedules
Schedules let your delegate wake up at specific times to check in and take action. They’re how you automate recurring work.What Schedules Do
A schedule tells your delegate to wake up at regular intervals and do something. Common uses:- Status checks - “Every Monday, review project status and post an update”
- Reminders - “Every Friday at 3pm, remind me to submit my timesheet”
- Monitoring - “Every day, check my inbox for urgent customer emails”
- Reports - “Every week, create a summary of completed tasks”
Creating Schedules
Through Conversation
The easiest way to create a schedule:“Every Monday at 9am, review my calendar for the week and flag any conflicts.”
“Check my email every morning and summarize anything urgent.”Your delegate will create the schedule and confirm the details.

Running Manually
You can trigger a schedule immediately without waiting:“Run the weekly status update now.”This is useful for testing or when you need the output before the scheduled time.
One-time vs. Recurring
You can create schedules that run once or repeatedly:| One-time | Recurring |
|---|---|
| Runs once then completes | Keeps running on interval |
| ”Remind me in 3 days" | "Every Monday at 9am” |
| Good for specific deadlines | Good for ongoing automation |
“In 3 days, remind me to follow up with the client.”Your delegate creates a schedule that runs once and then marks itself complete.
