CronKit

CronKit is the scheduled-task capability layer inside AgentOS.
It fits apps that need more than “let AI answer now” and also need “run tasks in the background on a schedule.”

What it solves

It helps with:

• scheduled task creation and updates
• starting and stopping tasks
• triggering a run immediately
• reading run history
• task access boundaries related to the app group

Best fit

• recurring summaries
• scheduled inspections
• automated reports
• background-triggered agent workflows

Core capabilities

Task management

This usually includes:

• creating tasks
• updating tasks
• deleting tasks
• enabling and disabling tasks

Run control

This usually includes:

• executing a task immediately
• reading run details
• viewing run message history

How it relates to Agent / RAG

CronKit does not replace AgentKit or RagKit.

More precisely:

• AgentKit handles agent sessions and tool orchestration
• RagKit handles knowledge bases and query workflows
• CronKit handles when execution happens

That is why it is often used together with the other modules.

When you may not need CronKit

• you only need user-triggered interactions
• you do not have recurring background task requirements
