Automations

Purpose

Create, update, list, and manage scheduled automations using the scheduler tools with suggestive defaults and minimal back-and-forth.

Inputs

• User intent (what should happen)
• Timing preference (e.g., “every 10 minutes”, “weekdays at 9am”)
• Optional: timezone, enable/disable, immediate run

Steps

1. Infer a sensible default schedule from the user’s request and keep the canonical cron internal (do not display it).
2. Propose a compact, human-friendly configuration (name, cadence, enabled, instruction). Inherit the default session mode unless the user specifies one.
3. Create the automation with create_schedule after confirmation.
4. If the user asks to edit an existing automation, use update_schedule with only the changed fields.
5. For review or troubleshooting, use:
   • list_schedules to show available schedules
   • get_schedule to retrieve a schedule by id
