Scheduled Tasks

What you can do here

A scheduled task is an agent set to run on its own — no manual trigger, no one watching. You give it one agent, one instruction and a cadence; it wakes up, does the job, and goes back to sleep. It's the third ingredient of the agent configurator: the Schedule.

Typical uses:

• Every weekday at 7 AM, turn today's lesson into a short interactive game and email it to the class.
• Each Monday, compile a learner-progress report and send it to you.
• Nightly, translate new content into your learners' languages.
• Once, at a set date and time, publish a course you prepared ahead.

Create a scheduled task

1. Open Scheduled Tasks and create a new task (start from the tab if a template fits).
2. Choose the agent that should run. Make sure it already has the connectors and knowledge bases it needs to finish the job unattended.
3. Write the instruction the agent runs each time.
4. Set the schedule — a one-off date and time, or a recurring cadence (daily, weekly, or a custom interval).
5. Save. It now runs on its own.

Task memory

Each task keeps a small memory it carries from one run to the next — so it can remember what it already did and avoid repeating itself (e.g. "don't email the same digest twice"). Mention in the instruction what's worth remembering.

Manage your tasks

• The Builder tab lists your tasks; use the search bar to find one.
• Open a task to edit its agent, instruction or schedule, or to pause or remove it.
• Run it once on demand to check the result before trusting it to the schedule.

Tips

• Make sure the chosen agent already has the connectors and knowledge bases it needs to finish the job unattended.
• Write the instruction as if it runs once — clear and self-contained — because no one is there to clarify mid-run.
• Start from a Catalog template for common jobs, then adjust the schedule to your cadence.
• Test the underlying agent in chat first; a task is only as reliable as the agent behind it.
