How do I disable the cron system if needed?

You can disable the cron functionality by setting 'cron.enabled=false' in your config or by using the 'CLAWDIS_SKIP_CRON=1' environment variable.

What is the difference between main and isolated session targets?

The 'main' target sends events directly to your primary conversation, while 'isolated' runs the job in a separate background session to perform tasks without interrupting your current chat.

Where does the skill store job data and logs?

Job definitions are stored in '~/.clawdis/cron/jobs.json' and execution logs are kept in '~/.clawdis/cron/runs/' as JSONL files.

Can I use standard cron expressions with this skill?

Yes, it supports standard cron syntax (e.g., '30 7 * * 1-5') and allows you to specify time zones for accurate scheduling.

Does this skill work with external messaging apps?

Yes, as part of the Clawdis ecosystem, scheduled jobs can deliver payloads specifically to WhatsApp, Telegram, or Web channels.
