Cron scheduler plugin for DeepSeek Harness to automate agent tasks via natural language or sidebar UI.
Install
$ dsh plugin --profile <profile> add dsh-plugin-cron-schedulerPlugin Overview & Capabilities
AI-assisted organization based on the public repository snapshot. The content must be grounded in source evidence and does not replace compatibility or security verification.
Key Capabilities
- Schedule recurring agent tasks using standard 5-field cron syntax
- Dual-channel task creation and management via conversational tool calls (cron_manage) and responsive sidebar UI
- Configurable session execution strategies supporting isolated new sessions or continuous fixed sessions
- Concurrency guardrails and graceful skipping of missed ticks when Harness is offline
- Run history logging with status reporting (success, failure, skipped) and manual immediate execution triggers
- Built-in HTTP REST API and SSE event stream for live task state synchronization
Useful For
- Scheduling periodic data exports, summaries, and automated research reports
- Setting up recurring maintenance or monitoring tasks within DeepSeek Harness workspace environments
- Automating multi-step agent workflows on regular time intervals without manual intervention
Who It Fits
- DeepSeek Harness users seeking automated, scheduled agent workflows
- Developers needing background task scheduling and periodic agent triggering
- Power users managing recurring data processing and reporting routines
Documented Limitations
- Tasks only execute when the DeepSeek Harness host process is running; ticks during application downtime are skipped and not backfilled
- Scheduling metadata such as nextRunAt and skippedAt are volatile in-memory values recalculated upon application restart
- Execution requires a functional agent factory and persistence backend at runtime; unavailable agent environments will record job failures
