AgentCron

Official registry Productivity

Schedule tasks for later from your AI agent: reminders, delayed webhooks, recurring jobs.

What can you do with AgentCron?

  • ⏰ Remind later — "Notify me in 2 hours to review the PR."
  • 🔁 Recurring — "Email me a summary every weekday at 9am."
  • 🪝 Delayed webhook — "POST this URL in 30 minutes to resume the workflow."
  • 🔍 Poll — "Every 10 minutes, hit the status webhook."

Install

Add this to your client's MCP configuration (Claude Desktop: claude_desktop_config.json; Cursor: .cursor/mcp.json; VS Code and others use the same "mcpServers" shape).

What it does

Agents can't sleep, wait, or run on a schedule. AgentCron gives them time:

  • ⏰ Remind later — "Notify me in 2 hours to review the PR."
  • 🔁 Recurring — "Email me a summary every weekday at 9am."
  • 🪝 Delayed webhook — "POST this URL in 30 minutes to resume the workflow."
  • 🔍 Poll — "Every 10 minutes, hit the status webhook."

A scheduled task either notifies you (email / Slack / Discord / webhook) or POSTs to a webhook at the chosen time. One-off or recurring.

🔒 Read-only by design. AgentCron only runs the tasks your agent schedules. No access to your inbox, files, or accounts.
