Automations are tasks that run on a schedule. Anything you’d delegate once, you can delegate every morning: triage new issues, update dependencies, watch error trackers, clean up stale PRs. Each run behaves like a normal task — same dev environment, same verification, same PR-based review.
The Automations page with scheduled tasks and templates

Creating an automation

Open Automations in the sidebar and click New Automation (or start from a template):
  1. Write the instructions, as you would for a regular task.
  2. Pick the agent that runs it.
  3. Set the schedule — a preset, a weekly picker, or a cron expression — and the timezone.
You can also select Schedule mode in the task composer and describe the automation conversationally, or manage automations from the CLI and API. Automations pull context from whatever integrations you’ve connected: GitHub issues and PRs, Linear sprints, Slack channels, Notion databases, Sentry errors, GCP and AWS logs.
Automations require a paid plan — see Pricing.

Templates

The template gallery on the Automations page ships ready-made recurring tasks, maintained as a community catalog that grows over time. A sample of what’s there:
  • Daily issue triage — scan open GitHub issues every morning: label, prioritize, spawn fixes
  • Error monitoring triage — fetch new unresolved Sentry errors and fix the actionable ones
  • Cloud log error triage — query GCP or AWS logs for new errors and crashes
  • Weekly dependency updates — update dependencies and verify the build still passes
  • Sprint automation — pick up ready Linear issues from the current sprint and start coding
  • Flaky test detection — mine CI history for flaky tests and verify with targeted reruns
  • Stale PR cleanup — nudge, rebase, or close stale pull requests
Every template is editable before you enable it — they’re just task instructions with a schedule.

Managing automations

Each automation can be toggled on/off, force-triggered to run now, edited, or deleted. Every run shows up as a task, so history and artifacts are always reviewable.
Schedules use standard 5-field cron: minute hour day-of-month month day-of-week.
