Scheduled Tasks Reference

Scheduled Tasks allow agents to automatically run recurring prompts and workflows in the background according to a schedule you pick in the UI.

🌟 Key Capabilities

Schedule-Based Runs: Set precise intervals with the schedule picker (e.g., daily at 09:00, weekly on Mondays). Advanced users can still enter Cron if needed.
Execution Modes:
- YOLO: Auto-approves standard tool calls for unattended background execution.
- Unsafe: Completely unattended Full Auto mode allowing shell commands and file operations without confirmation dialogs.
- Normal: Pauses and prompts for user approval before sensitive operations.
Dedicated Assistant Assignment: Binds tasks to specialized assistants with tailored instructions and tool permissions.
Starter Templates: Provides 1-click deployment for common maintenance tasks.

Deploy pre-configured tasks directly from the Scheduled Tasks view:

Template Name	Schedule	Execution Mode	Summary
PC Health & Security Daily Audit	Daily at midnight	`Unsafe` (Full Auto)	Inspects available disk space, long-running processes, uncommitted Git changes, and package vulnerabilities.
Website Changes & Headline Briefing	Daily at 09:00	`YOLO`	Uses browser automation to visit tech sites and generate a 3-bullet summary briefing.

Navigate to Scheduled Tasks in the sidebar (clock icon).
Click New task or Add Task.
Configure the task properties:
- Task Name: Descriptive title (e.g., Daily Backup Check).
- Schedule: Use the schedule picker for recurrence (e.g., weekdays at 09:00). Advanced users can enter a Cron expression if needed.
- Prompt Message: Clear instructions sent to the agent.
- Assistant: The assistant persona assigned to execute the prompt.
- Execution Mode: Choose YOLO, Unsafe, or Normal based on required automation level.
Save and Activate:
- Use the toggle switch on the card to enable or disable the task at any time.
- Click Run Now to test execution immediately without waiting for the scheduled time.

Local Desktop Execution: Because LibrAgent runs locally on your computer, your machine must be powered on and LibrAgent must remain active in the background for scheduled tasks to execute.
Unattended Execution: For completely unattended runs that modify files or execute shell commands, select YOLO or Unsafe mode to prevent tasks from pausing on approval dialogs.
