Configuring jobs
Open Jobs in the left sidebar. Each job has:
- Enable/disable toggle
- Model selection — pick which Claude model runs it
- CRON schedule — standard CRON expressions
- Custom prompt — the instructions sent to the agent
0 9 * * 1 # Every Monday at 9 AM
0 */6 * * * # Every 6 hours
0 0 * * * # Daily at midnightExecution
When a job fires, it creates a new chat session with the job's prompt. Results are visible in session history. Jobs respect the pressure system — at critical pressure, execution is deferred.
If Telegram is configured, you'll get the results on your phone.
