What is Set Reminder?

The Set Reminder skill is a robust scheduling utility designed to integrate seamlessly within the Openclaw Skills ecosystem. It provides developers and AI agents with the ability to programmatically create reminders using various time-parsing methods, including relative offsets, specific ISO timestamps, or standard cron expressions. This ensures that critical tasks, follow-ups, or recurring events are never missed, bridging the gap between automated agent workflows and real-world notifications.

By leveraging this skill, users can configure multiple delivery channels such as iMessage or Discord, allowing for flexible communication based on the context of the reminder. Whether integrated into a local workspace or a managed environment, Set Reminder offers a standardized way to manage temporal triggers within Openclaw Skills, making it an essential tool for building autonomous, time-aware agentic systems.

Set Reminder Use Cases

  • Scheduling follow-up messages for long-running tasks or asynchronous agent operations.
  • Setting up recurring standup notifications or daily status check-ins via Discord.
  • Creating one-shot time-sensitive alerts for personal health reminders or medicine schedules.
  • Integrating with other Openclaw Skills to trigger specific workflows at predefined intervals.

How Set Reminder Works

  1. The skill initiates by loading configuration settings from the workspace or global directory, determining the default channel and timezone.
  2. The system validates the input parameters, checking for correct time formatting such as ISO, relative offsets, or cron expressions.
  3. Upon validation, the script registers a new job within the Openclaw Skills cron management system.
  4. When the specified time condition is met, the reminder fires and the message is dispatched to the configured delivery channel.

Set Reminder Setup

To get started with this component of Openclaw Skills, create a config.json file in your skill directory to define your delivery channels and timezone:

{
  "default": "imessage",
  "timezone": "America/Edmonton",
  "channels": {
    "imessage": "[email protected]",
    "discord": "1234567890123456789"
  }
}

You can then set reminders using the following CLI pattern:

python3 skills/set-reminder/scripts/set_reminder.py --at "+20m" --message "Task description"

Set Reminder Data Schema & Taxonomy

This skill manages its operations through structured JSON configuration files and the internal Openclaw Skills cron registry. The configuration schema includes:

Field Type Description
default String The fallback notification channel.
timezone String The local timezone for cron calculation (e.g., America/New_York).
channels Object Key-value pairs of channel names and their respective IDs/emails.

All active jobs are stored within the standard Openclaw cron database for persistence across sessions.

Set Reminder Advanced Features

  • Support for 5-field standard cron expressions for complex scheduling needs.
  • Multiple delivery channel support, including iMessage and Discord integration.
  • Flexible configuration hierarchy allowing for workspace-specific or global settings within Openclaw Skills.
  • Relative time parsing for quick one-off reminders without needing specific timestamps.
