Create, edit, run or audit scheduled, planned and adhoc tasks; cron, timezones and reminders.
# Scheduler Tasks Use the `scheduler` tool to manage saved tasks. Always inspect existing tasks before creating, updating, deleting, or running one. ## Actions - `list_tasks`: optional `state[]`, `type[]`, `next_run_within`, `next_run_after` - `find_task_by_name`: `name` - `show_task`: `uuid` - `run_task`: `uuid`, optional `context` - `update_task`: `uuid`, optional `name`, `system_prompt`, `prompt`, `attachments[]`, `schedule`, `timezone`, `plan[]`, `state`, `dedicated_context` - `delete_task`: `uuid` - `create_scheduled_task`: `name`, `system_prompt`, `prompt`, optional `attachments[]`, `schedule`, `timezone`, `dedicated_context` - `create_adhoc_task`: `name`, `system_prompt`, `prompt`, optional `attachments[]`, `dedicated_context` - `create_planned_task`: `name`, `system_prompt`, `prompt`, optional `attachments[]`, `plan[]`, `dedicated_context` - `wait_for_task`: `uuid` ## Schedule Fields Schedules use cron-like fields. Do not put ISO datetimes into `schedule`. - `minute` - `hour` - `day` - `month` - `weekday` - `timezone` Use IANA timezones such as `Europe/Rome`. Omit timezone to use the current user timezone. Planned task datetimes go in `plan`, not `schedule`, and should be ISO strings such as `2026-05-09T18:25:00`. For one future reminder, prefer `create_planned_task` with: ```json { "action": "create_planned_task", "name": "drink water", "prompt": "Remind the user to drink water.", "plan": ["2026-05-11T09:15:00"], "dedicated_context": true } ``` For a recurring or cron-shaped scheduled task, use `create_scheduled_task` with: ```json { "action": "create_scheduled_task", "name": "weekday stretch", "prompt": "Remind the user to stretch.", "schedule": { "minute": "15", "hour": "9", "day": "*", "month": "*", "weekday": "1-5", "timezone": "Europe/Rome" }, "dedicated_context": true } ``` ## Safety - Do not create recursive task prompts that schedule more tasks. - Do not run a task just because it is scheduled; run only if the user asks. - Created tasks use a dedicated context unless `dedicated_context` is explicitly `false`. - For destructive operations, identify the task by UUID after lookup. ## Example ```json { "tool_name": "scheduler", "tool_args": { "action": "find_task_by_name", "name": "daily backup" } } ```
