# Calendar

> Schedule one-off or recurring work for an AI employee.

Use **Calendar** to schedule work for a worker. Scheduled tasks are useful for recurring reports, daily checks, weekly summaries, reminders, and any work that should happen at a specific time.

## Creating a scheduled task

You can create a task from a future calendar slot or with the create task action.

A scheduled task includes:

| Setting                | What it does                                                                       |
| ---------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Name**               | A short label for the scheduled task.                                              |
| **Task instructions**  | The prompt the worker receives when the task runs. Explain the outcome you expect. |
| **Schedule type**      | Choose a one-time task or a recurring task.                                        |
| **Date and time**      | When a one-time task should run. Past dates cannot be scheduled.                   |
| **Recurring schedule** | A repeating cadence for recurring work.                                            |
| **Timezone**           | The timezone used to interpret the scheduled time.                                 |
| **Enabled**            | Keeps the task active. Disabled tasks are saved but do not run.                    |

## Managing scheduled work

You can:

* Edit an existing task.
* Drag a task to reschedule it.
* Delete a task.
* Disable a task without deleting it.
* For recurring tasks, choose whether changes apply to the whole series or only one occurrence.

<Tip>
  Write task instructions like a delegation note to a colleague. Include context, the expected output, where to find inputs, and where the result should go.
</Tip>

## Example task instructions

```text theme={"system"}
Every Friday at 4pm, review this week's inbound support emails. Summarize the top recurring issues, list any unresolved customer escalations, and draft a short update for the operations team.
```

<Warning>
  Scheduled tasks run automatically when enabled. Make sure the worker has the right knowledge, tools, and approval policy before scheduling sensitive work.
