Routines
Schedule tasks to run automatically on any cron schedule. Use a custom prompt or run a saved workflow.
Creating a Routine
In the Routines modal, each routine has two parts:
| What to run | A custom prompt or a saved workflow |
| When to run | A cron schedule (e.g. every morning, every Monday, every hour) |
Custom Prompt vs Workflow
Custom Prompt
Write a plain text instruction for the agent to follow. Good for simple, single-purpose tasks.
> Check my emails and summarize anything important
Saved Workflow
Select a workflow you've already created. Best for multi-step tasks that chain together multiple integrations.
workflow: Morning Briefing
Tip: Create your workflows first in the Workflows menu, then attach them to routines for scheduled automation.
