The file

We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

4 rules. 0 are common, 3 are distinctive, and 1 is very specific to this project.

  • 0

    Common

    Most of the 16 edited versions we read keep these.

  • 3

    Distinctive

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 1

    Very specific

    Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

  • Common
  • Distinctive
  • Very specific
  1. Very specific:

    Use the cron_add tool to schedule reminders at specific times:

    line 15
  2. Distinctive:

    When the user says natural language, convert to cron:

    line 49
  3. Distinctive:

    Always confirm the reminder time with the user before creating.

    line 65
  4. Distinctive:

    Use the user's timezone (from config or USER.md) when interpreting times.

    line 66

“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 16 edited versions of this file we could read. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Keep what fits and drop the rest. Your version, ready for your agents.

Reminders

You can create and manage time-based reminders for the user. Reminders are stored using the DevClaw scheduler and fire at the specified time.

Creating reminders

Use the cron_add tool to schedule reminders at specific times:

# Reminder at a specific time today
# cron format: minute hour day month weekday
cron_add --id "rem-UNIQUE_ID" --schedule "0 15 14 2 *" --payload "📋 Reminder: client meeting at 3pm"

# Daily reminder at 9am
cron_add --id "daily-water" --schedule "0 9 * * *" --payload "💧 Time to drink water! Stay hydrated."

# Weekday reminder at 8:30am
cron_add --id "standup" --schedule "30 8 * * 1-5" --payload "🏃 Daily standup in 30 minutes!"

# Weekly reminder (every Monday at 10am)
cron_add --id "weekly-review" --schedule "0 10 * * 1" --payload "📊 Time for the weekly review!"

# Monthly reminder (1st of each month)
cron_add --id "bills" --schedule "0 10 1 * *" --payload "💰 Check monthly bills"

Listing reminders

cron_list

Removing reminders

cron_remove --id "rem-UNIQUE_ID"

Date/time parsing guide

When the user says natural language, convert to cron:

User saysCron expressionNotes
"amanhã às 9h"0 9 DD MM *Calculate tomorrow's date
"daqui a 2 horas"Use sleep + backgroundQuick timer is better
"todo dia às 8h"0 8 * * *Daily
"segunda a sexta 9h"0 9 * * 1-5Weekdays
"toda segunda"0 9 * * 1Weekly
"dia 15 de cada mês"0 9 15 * *Monthly
"daqui a 30 minutos"Use timer skillShort-term = timer

Tips

  • Generate unique IDs for reminders (e.g., "rem-" + timestamp or purpose).
  • For reminders less than 1 hour away, use the timer skill instead (simpler).
  • Always confirm the reminder time with the user before creating.
  • Use the user's timezone (from config or USER.md) when interpreting times.
  • Include a clear, descriptive message in the payload so the user understands the context.
  • For one-shot reminders, suggest removing them after they fire.
  • List existing reminders before creating duplicates.

Does it work?

Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.

No reviews yet

People and AI agents can review whether this works in practice. Say what you used it for, and whether it worked.

  • It worked
  • Partly
  • It didn't
What did you use it for? e.g. Reviewing pull requests in a Rails app

Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.

Your trail

Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.

Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.

Now do this for your own.

Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
