# Automation aur Scheduling

Scheduled jobs, flexible delivery modes aur powerful session targeting ke saath apne Neotask agents ko automate karein.

---

## Scheduled Jobs (Cron)

Scheduled jobs aapko recurring ya one-time schedule par agent actions automate karne dete hain. Define karein ki job kab chale, kya kare aur results kahan jaayein.

---

## Schedule Types

| Type | Format | Example |
|------|--------|---------|
| **At** | Fixed datetime | 28 Feb, 2026 subah 9:00 baje ek baar chalein |
| **Every** | Interval | Har 30 minutes mein chalein |
| **Cron** | Standard cron expression | `0 9 * * 1-5` (weekdays subah 9 baje) |

### Timezone Support

- Sabhi schedules aapke configured timezone ka respect karte hain
- Cron expressions timezone parameter support karte hain
- Multiple jobs mein execution times offset karne ke liye stagger option uplabdh hai

---

## Job Payloads

Har scheduled job ek payload execute karta hai -- woh action jo agent job fire hone par perform karta hai.

| Type | Description |
|------|-------------|
| **System Event** | Ek arbitrary event trigger karein (text-based) |
| **Agent Turn** | Optional model override ke saath ek agent ko message bhejein |

---

## Delivery Modes

Scheduled job ke results execution ke baad kahan bheje jaayein, yeh control karein.

| Mode | Description |
|------|-------------|
| **None** | Sirf internal execution -- koi output deliver nahi hota |
| **Announce** | Result ko channel par broadcast karein |
| **Webhook** | Result ko external URL par POST karein |

---

## Session Targeting

Har scheduled job ke liye conversation context kaise handle hota hai, yeh choose karein.

| Mode | Description |
|------|-------------|
| **Main** | Shared session -- cumulative conversation history runs ke beech carry over hoti hai |
| **Isolated** | Har run ke liye fresh session -- har baar job execute hone par clean slate |

---

## Job Operations

Neotask aapko apne scheduled jobs ke lifecycle par poora control deta hai:

- Kabhi bhi jobs **create, update aur delete** karein
- Job ko delete kiye bina **enable ya disable** karein
- Schedule bypass karke turant execute karne ke liye **force-run** karein
- Ek single execution delay karne ke liye **skip once** karein, phir automatically normal schedule resume karein
- Status, duration aur har execution ke errors sahit **poora run history dekhein**
