Cron Job Scheduler
Hermes includes a built-in cron scheduler that lets you run tasks on a schedule using plain English. Results can be delivered back to Telegram, Discord, Slack, Email, or stored to disk.
What it is
A lightweight job scheduler inside the agent runtime. You describe the schedule and the task in natural language, and Hermes handles the rest — waking the right tools, running the workflow, and routing the output.
Who it targets
- Anyone running daily reports, nightly backups, or weekly audits.
- Teams that want agent-driven alerts without building a separate pipeline.
- Users who prefer chat-style scheduling over crontab syntax.
Dependencies
- Hermes Agent
- Cron scheduler enabled
- At least one connected channel or log target
How to install
The cron scheduler is built into Hermes core. Add a job with:
hermes cron add "every day at 8am" "Summarize my unread newsletters"
