schedule

schedule is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from SethGammon/Citadel. It costs 41 tokens per session (1,872 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A tool for running one-time or recurring commands on a schedule. It can use your computer’s built-in scheduler, or document a cloud-based option for runs that need to continue beyond the current machine or session.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to schedule commands such as regular maintenance, reports, or recurring agent runs. It can add, list, and remove schedules and return the information needed to manage them.
Why use it?
It removes the need to remember repeated tasks or start them manually. It also distinguishes scheduled work from repetition that should happen only during the current session.

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

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 4d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 219 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

/schedule — Task Scheduling

Orientation

Use when: scheduling a recurring or one-off remote agent run (cron-style, outside the current session). Don't use when: repeating work within the current session (use /loop); continuous unattended campaigns (use /daemon).

Default execution path (READ FIRST)

/schedule add does NOT call CronCreate by default. It shells out to node scripts/local-schedule.js which installs a native OS entry (Windows Task Scheduler or Unix cron). Only pass --remote to use Anthropic's routine system, and only after explicit user confirmation.

Why: CronCreate counts against the account-wide 15 routine runs / 24h cap; every fire of the scheduled task counts. See docs/ROUTINE-QUOTA.md.

Default flow — /schedule add "<expr>" "<command>" (no --remote)

Run:

node scripts/local-schedule.js add "<expr>" "<command>"

Then report the returned ID and the removal command. This survives session end, machine reboot, and consumes zero routine quota. Use /schedule list and /schedule remove {id} (which also shell out to local-schedule.js) by default.

Codex automation lane

When running in Codex and the user wants the schedule to survive the current terminal session, create a Codex Automation plan instead of a local OS entry:

node scripts/codex-automation.js plan --type schedule --cadence "<expr>" --command "<command>" --write

Give the returned prompt to the Codex app automation surface and keep the generated .planning/codex-automations/{id}.json as the durable Citadel record.

If .planning/ does not exist, create it before writing automation state.

Opt-in routine flow — /schedule add --remote ...

Only when --remote is explicitly passed:

  1. Confirm: "This will use CronCreate, which counts against your 15 routine runs / 24h quota and is cleared at session end. Continue? (y/N)"
  2. On confirmation, run the CronCreate-based flow documented below.

What ships with it

2 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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.

schedule is a skill published in the GitHub repository SethGammon/Citadel (916 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 41 tokens to every session and 1,872 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 2026-08-30.
