setup-schedule

Create or update the Career Navigator daily brief as a Cowork scheduled task. When the task fires each morning, it delivers a full operating brief: pipeline digest, Gmail inbox scan (two-pass strategy to catch missed status emails), follow-up alerts, and top new job recommendations appended to recommendations.json.

1. Verify Career Navigator setup

Read {user_dir}/CareerNavigator/profile.md.

If the profile is missing, output:

Daily schedule not set up: run /career-navigator:launch first to initialize Career Navigator.

Then stop.

2. Check for existing scheduled tasks

Load and call mcp__scheduled-tasks__list_scheduled_tasks. Look for a task named career-navigator-daily-brief and a task named career-navigator-pipeline-refresh (or whose prompt otherwise mentions Career Navigator).

If the daily brief task is found:

• Display its current schedule and a one-line summary of its prompt
• Ask: "A daily brief is already scheduled. Would you like to update the time, update the prompt, or keep it as-is?"
• If the user wants to update: follow Steps 3–5 but use mcp__scheduled-tasks__update_scheduled_task with the existing task's ID instead of creating a new one
• If the user wants to keep it: confirm "Your daily brief is already scheduled." and continue to check the pipeline-refresh task below rather than stopping

If the pipeline-refresh task is found: display its current schedule and offer the same update/keep choice, using update_scheduled_task if the user wants a change.

If both tasks already exist and the user wants to keep both as-is, confirm "Your daily brief and pipeline refresh are already scheduled." and stop.

3. Confirm preferred schedule(s)

Ask: "What time would you like your daily brief? Default is 7:00 AM daily."

Accept natural language and convert to a cron expression:

Input	Cron
"7am" / "7:00 AM" / default	0 7 * * *
"6:30am"	30 6 * * *
"8am weekdays"	0 8 * * 1-5
"6am every day"	0 6 * * *
