ArkClaw responds to your requests in real time and supports scheduled tasks. It acts as a personal assistant that automatically completes tasks at scheduled times to remind you.

Concept

Concept	Definition
Scheduled task	Task automatically triggered at the specified time based on the user's preset time and content.
Test run	Manual test that can be initiated at any time. This operation does not affect the configured scheduled task and is only used to verify whether the configuration of the newly created task meets expectations.

Create scheduled tasks

If you have not yet created scheduled tasks or need to add new ones, you can quickly create them via templates or custom configurations to deliver proactive reminders in various scenarios.

Prerequisites

To push scheduled task information to message channels (Feishu, WeCom, WeChat, and DingTalk), complete the integration of message channels first.

Procedure

(Recommended) template-based scheduled task creation

Personalized scheduled task creation

You can use system preset templates to easily and quickly create scheduled tasks.

Log in to the ArkClaw console.

Switch to the target ArkClaw page, and select "Scheduled tasks" in the directory tree on the left.

Click the target scheduled task template, for example, "Industry sentiment".

Confirm whether the content of the selected template fully meets your requirements.

If the template meets your requirements, click "Confirm" to complete the operation.

If it does not meet your requirements, you can adjust the relevant content or click the "AI optimization" button in the upper-right corner of the prompt input box. The system will automatically expand the input content into structured instructions containing execution requirements, steps, and output requirements, thereby improving the accuracy and stability of task execution. Then, click "Confirm" to complete the operation. For parameter descriptions, refer to Creating personalized scheduled tasks.

After a scheduled task is created, it does not run by default. The system automatically executes the task based on the specified execution time.

(Optional) To ensure that the task configuration is valid, we recommend that you perform a test run after the task is created to verify whether it meets your expectations.

Find the created task in the task list, and click to run a test.

Check the test run result: If "Last execution succeeded" appears and ArkClaw returns a message similar to the following, the scheduled task is successfully configured.

tip

In this example, the "Web" channel is used as the push channel.

If the push channel of the scheduled task is set to "Feishu", "WeCom", "WeChat", or "DingTalk", check the push message on the corresponding platform.

When the system preset templates cannot cover your business scenario, you can create custom scheduled tasks to meet personalized and customized business requirements.

Log in to the ArkClaw console.

Switch to the target ArkClaw page, and select "Scheduled tasks" in the directory tree on the left.

Click the "Create scheduled task" button. Then, configure the parameters described in the following table to complete the scheduled task configuration.

Parameters	Description
Term	Enter the name of the scheduled task. For example, "Weather and Outfit".
Execution agent	Specify the agent to handle the current task and generate corresponding outputs. The default agent is ArkClaw intelligent assistant. If you have created a team, you can also select other in-team agents based on your needs. Learn more.
Prompt	Provide a prompt that describes the reminder task. The system will send a reminder at the scheduled time based on the provided prompt. Example: Act as my personal assistant and remind me of the weather details in Chengdu and Xi'an. Your tasks include: 1. Identify the weather details of Chengdu and Xi'an separately. 2. Recommend daily outfits for me based on the specific weather. tip If you want the AI to help refine your prompts, click the "AI Optimize" button in the upper-right corner of the input box. The system will automatically expand the input content into structured instructions containing execution requirements, steps, and output requirements, thereby improving the accuracy and stability of task execution. If the generated content does not meet your expectations, adjust as needed or click the "Retry" button to regenerate.
Execution time	The time when you want to be reminded. For example, every day at 9:00 AM.
Push channel (Optional)	Select the channel (platform) for receiving scheduled task information as needed. Currently supported channels include "Web", "Feishu", "WeCom", "WeChat", and "DingTalk". tip By default, the "Web" channel is used, which means scheduled task information will be automatically sent to ArkClaw.
Push to target group (optional)	When the push channel is set to Feishu, and there are available Feishu groups, you can select the corresponding Feishu groups as message recipients.

Click "Confirm" to complete the procedure.

After the task is created, its initial status is Not executed. The system will automatically trigger and run the task at the specified time.

(Optional) To ensure that the task configuration is valid, we recommend that you perform a test run after the task is created to verify whether it meets your expectations.

Find the target task in the task list and click to run a test.

Check the test run result: If "Last execution succeeded" appears and you have received the corresponding scheduled task information, the scheduled task is successfully configured.

tip

In this example, the "Web" channel is used as the push channel.

If the push channel of the scheduled task is set to "Feishu", "WeCom", "WeChat", or "DingTalk", check the push message on the corresponding platform.
