Scheduled tasks

A scheduled task runs an instruction at a selected time or interval. T-Agent can create one from a conversation, or you can select New task from the Scheduled tasks page.

T-Agent scheduled task list
  1. Select Scheduled tasks in the sidebar.
  2. Select New task and enter a name, description, and execution instruction. Write the instruction so it can be understood on an independent run.
Create a T-Agent scheduled task
  1. Choose the conversation mode:
    • New conversation starts without the previous run's context. Use it for daily reports, checks, and independent summaries.
    • Continuous conversation returns to the same conversation and retains previous context. Use it to follow one subject over time.
  2. Choose manual, hourly, daily, weekday, weekly, or an existing custom schedule. Daily and weekly schedules also require a time, and weekly schedules require a weekday.
  3. Choose a notification target. Local notifications are available by default. A connected Feishu or Lark account can send to the primary chat or a selected conversation.
  4. Use advanced settings to select the correct workspace folder when the task needs to read or write files.
  5. After saving, review status, last run, next run, and errors. Open task details for the full instruction and run history.
  6. Pause a task temporarily, run it immediately for validation, or delete it when it is no longer required.

Important limits

  • Scheduled tasks run only while the computer is awake. Enable Keep awake when reliable execution matters.
  • A run may be delayed by several minutes for performance reasons. Do not use scheduled tasks for second-level or hard real-time workflows.
  • The conversation mode cannot be changed after creation. Delete and recreate the task to switch modes.
  • Deleting a scheduled task also deletes its conversations and execution history.
  • Keep a human confirmation step for payments, publishing, sensitive messages, and similar actions.
