Cron Scheduling

Use this skill when the user asks to schedule, reschedule, or cancel reminders/tasks for later.

Before creating a schedule, confirm:

• exact schedule timing (cron expression),
• timezone (IANA, for example America/Los_Angeles),
• task message content.

If the request is ambiguous, ask a follow-up question before adding a schedule.

Commands

Use the embedded CLI. It talks to the backend schedule service and stores schedules in SQLite.

middleman schedule add \
  --cron "0 9 * * 1-5" \
  --message "Remind me about the daily standup" \
  --description "Daily standup reminder" \
  --timezone "America/Los_Angeles"

One-shot schedule (fires once at the next matching cron time):

middleman schedule add \
  --cron "30 14 * * *" \
  --message "Check deployment status" \
  --description "One-time deployment check" \
  --timezone "America/Los_Angeles" \
  --one-shot

Remove a schedule:

middleman schedule remove \
  "<schedule-id>"

List schedules:

middleman schedule list

Override manager context manually when needed:

middleman schedule list --manager "manager"

Output

All commands return JSON:

• Success: { "ok": true, ... }
• Failure: { "ok": false, "error": "..." }
