Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00038 | $0.01364 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00019 | $0.00682 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00008 | $0.00273 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00136 |
Grade A, and why
cron scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured today.
A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.
Nothing flagged
None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 205 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Cron (Scheduled Task Management)
When to Use
Use this skill only when you need to automatically execute something at a future time or repeat execution on a schedule.
Should Use
- User asks to do something "daily / weekly / hourly"
- User asks for automatic reminders or execution "tomorrow at 9 AM / next Monday / at a specific time"
- Long-term periodic notifications, checks, or reports are needed
Should Not Use
- The task only needs to be executed once right now
- It is just a normal reply within the current session
- The user has not specified an execution time or schedule
- The target channel / user / session is still unclear
Decision Rules
- Only use cron for future scheduled or periodic execution
- If it only needs to be done once immediately, do not create a cron job
- Before creating, confirm execution time/schedule, target channel, target-user, and target-session
- All cron commands must explicitly include
--agent-id - Do not rely on the default agent, or the task may end up in the default workspace
Hard Rules
Must Explicitly Specify --agent-id
All qwenpaw cron commands must include:
--agent-id <your_agent_id>
Your agent_id is found in the Agent Identity section of the system prompt (Your agent id is ...). Do not omit it, or the task may be incorrectly created in the default agent's workspace.
Common Commands
# List tasks
qwenpaw cron list --agent-id <agent_id>
# View task details
qwenpaw cron get <job_id> --agent-id <agent_id>
# View task status
qwenpaw cron state <job_id> --agent-id <agent_id>
# Create a task
qwenpaw cron create --agent-id <agent_id> ...
# Delete a task
qwenpaw cron delete <job_id> --agent-id <agent_id>
# Pause / Resume a task
qwenpaw cron pause <job_id> --agent-id <agent_id>
qwenpaw cron resume <job_id> --agent-id <agent_id>
# Run an existing task once immediately
qwenpaw cron run <job_id> --agent-id <agent_id>
What this file has done since we first saw it
Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

cron is a skill published in the GitHub repository agentscope-ai/skills (123 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 38 tokens to every session and 1,364 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-11.
