 "title": "Schedule a recurring agent task and review its history",
 "page_title": "How to schedule a recurring agent task and review its history with Useagent",
 "summary": "Set up a task that runs on a schedule and check each run's history without starting it by hand.",
 "who": "A team lead who needs the same report or repository check run every week without anyone remembering to start it.",
 "problem": "Recurring checks and reports get skipped when they depend on someone starting them manually.",
 "outcome": "A scheduled task that runs on its own, with a history you can inspect and an option to run it immediately.",
 "steps": [
  "Sign up at app.useagent.org and connect a model you want to use.",
  "Open Automations in the web app. (inferred, check the README)",
  "Create an automation that describes the task and its schedule.",
  "Run the automation once right away to confirm the output is what you want.",
  "Open its history after the next scheduled run and review the steps and files."
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "Using the UseAgent hosted app, create a recurring automation that asks the agent to <task description> on a weekly schedule. Expected output: a stored run history entry for each scheduled run with its output files. Verify that a manual run and the first scheduled run both produce the same kind of output.",
 "agents": [
  "any"
 ],
 "difficulty": "Intermediate",
 "time": "30 minutes",
 "basis": "readme",
 "caveat": "The README lists recurring work as a feature but does not describe the schedule options or the exact screens, so check the automations page for available choices.",

 "lang": "typescript",
 "requirements": [
  "A hosted UseAgent account, or a Linux host or laptop for self-hosting or running from source",
  "bun and Postgres 16+ with pgvector (for running from source)",
  "A sandbox provider key and a model key (the README says a real agent task needs both)",
  "Optional: a ChatGPT account to run Codex on your own plan"
