Scheduled Tasks

Create tasks from Scheduled Tasks or by typing /schedule in supported chats.

Overview​

Scheduled Tasks run assistant work on a timetable. Create from the sidebar or with /schedule in chat. From chat, the assistant builds a clear self-contained prompt (and optional brief), a unique task name, and a review card before Create Task. Schedule fields follow Frequency — Manual shows Runs manually; other frequencies use date, time, and related fields. Morning digest and inbox summary run at the times you set.

End-to-end flow​

A simple path to follow:

Sidebar → Scheduled Tasks → New Task — or in chat type /schedule → Answer follow-ups if asked → Review card → Create Task → Or set Morning digest / Inbox summary

How it works​

New Task / /schedule:

Task name — 50 characters. Brief description — 200 characters (optional). Run Frequency defaults to Manual in the form. /schedule builds a full prompt from your message and chat context — it does not keep the chat on the task.

Prompt & name:

The prompt is shown in full on review and stays editable before you create. Task Name and Brief Description come from that prompt. Duplicate generated names get a unique suffix. After create, edit from Scheduled Tasks.

Schedule fields:

Changing Frequency keeps what still applies and clears what does not. Date/Start Date can default to a valid next run; Time is only set if you provide it. For non-Manual defaults in the form: Date today, End Date one month ahead, Time rounded to the next slot (for example 3:39 → 3:45). Hourly / Every 30 Min use minutes only. Blank End Date means no end date. Time Zone shows Auto (for example Auto Asia/Calcutta).

Execution:

At the scheduled date and time, the task runs automatically — you do not need to be in the chat. Open Scheduled Tasks (or related notifications) to see execution status and review the output.

Morning digest:

Default 7:30 AM local by email and in-app card. Sections: today’s calendar with pre-read links, overdue/at-risk items, team signals, top-3 focus. Empty sections hide. 60–90 second read; thumbs and comment on every digest. Data older than 6 hours shows a last-updated note. Configure time, days, sections, length, and tone.

Inbox summary:

Default 8:30 AM as a chat session. Unread mail grouped by sender/thread into Needs reply / FYI / Auto-decline. Needs reply drafts stay in your tone — you approve, edit, or reject; nothing sends without you. Sensitive topics are marked review carefully. Configure senders, auto-decline, tone, and frequency; global on/off applies within minutes.

Edit or pause:

Change or pause schedules when priorities shift so outdated prompts do not keep running.

Tip:

Start with one simple weekly task or turn on morning digest before adding many schedules.
