c-schedule

c-schedule is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from daxaur/openpaw. It costs 31 tokens per session (843 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A scheduling guide for running recurring Claude tasks through macOS launchd or Linux cron, with cost limits and result delivery.

In plain words
What is it for?
Creating, listing, enabling, disabling, manually running, and removing scheduled tasks, plus reviewing usage and setting a daily cap.
Why use it?
It removes the need to remember repeated tasks and helps limit spending from jobs that run automatically.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

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.

Security

Grade A, and why

c-schedule 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 6d ago.

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.

Smart Scheduling

Automate recurring tasks with Claude. Jobs run on a schedule via launchd (macOS) or cron (Linux), with built-in cost caps to prevent runaway spending.

Managing Schedules

# Add a scheduled job (inline)
openpaw schedule add "weekdays 8am" --run "check email and summarize the important ones"
openpaw schedule add "daily 9pm" --run "review today's GitHub notifications"
openpaw schedule add "every 30 minutes" --run "check if any urgent emails arrived" --model haiku

# Interactive mode (prompts for all options)
openpaw schedule add

# List all jobs
openpaw schedule list

# Remove a job
openpaw schedule remove <id>

# Manually trigger a job
openpaw schedule run <id>

# Enable/disable without removing
openpaw schedule enable <id>
openpaw schedule disable <id>

# View cost usage
openpaw schedule costs

# Set daily cost cap
openpaw schedule set-cap 10.00

Schedule Syntax

Human-readable formats:

  • weekdays 8am or weekdays 08:00
  • daily 9pm or daily 21:00
  • weekends 10am
  • every 30 minutes
  • every 2 hours
  • monday 9am, friday 5pm, etc.
  • Raw cron: 0 8 * * 1-5

Cost Control

  • Daily cap: $5/day by default — jobs are skipped if the cap would be exceeded
  • Per-run budget: Each job has its own budget cap (default $1.00)
  • Cost tracking: All costs logged to ~/.config/openpaw/schedule-costs.json
  • 30-day history: Old entries auto-pruned
  • View anytime: openpaw schedule costs

Delivery Methods

  • telegram — results sent directly to your Telegram (requires Telegram bridge setup)
  • file — saved to ~/.config/openpaw/schedule-results/ (always saved as backup)
  • notify — macOS notification via terminal-notifier

How It Works

  1. Jobs are stored in ~/.config/openpaw/schedules.json
  2. Each job registers as a system scheduler:
    • macOS: launchd plist in ~/Library/LaunchAgents/
    • Linux: crontab entry
  3. When triggered, openpaw schedule run <id> is called
  4. Claude runs with the job's prompt via the Agent SDK
  5. Results are delivered to the configured channel
  6. Cost is recorded

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.
