What it does

Agenticx Automation Crontask is an agent skill from DemonDamon/AgenticX. Build and maintain Near Desktop scheduled (cron) tasks — default workspace ~/.agenticx/crontask, scheduletask tool, execution contract, and user-facing output. Use when the user wants recurring automation, crontab-style jobs, or to author/fix automation task prompts.

Its SKILL.md is about 560 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Productivity & Automation, covering Scheduled and recurring tasks. It works with Python. The repository describes itself as: AgenticX is a unified, production-ready multi-agent platform — Python SDK + CLI (agx) + Studio server + Machi desktop app. Features Meta-Agent orchestration, 15+ LLM providers… The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • The user wants recurring automation
  • Crontab-style jobs
  • Author/fix automation task prompts

Example prompts

  • “/agenticx-automation-crontask”

Requirements

  • Python 3

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. 先拿到 任务根:用户指定的 workspace,或创建任务后默认的 ~/.agenticx/crontask//(schedule_task 返回的 task_id 可用于路径)。
  2. 在任务根下 python3 -m venv .venv(若尚无),.venv/bin/pip install …。
  3. bash_exec 用 <任务根>/.venv/bin/python 试跑脚本,确认无 import 错误。
  4. instruction 里的命令必须与 同一解释器路径 一致。

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit ce32aff. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • pip
    • python3

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use pip, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Agenticx Automation Crontask loads about 561 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 74 tokens; SKILL.md has 129 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~74
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~561

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

AgenticX 定时任务(Crontask)

任务根目录(工程约定,与 Desktop / schedule_task 一致)

用户在自动化里是否填写「工作区」任务根目录
填写了用户给定目录(Desktop 会 mkdir)
留空~/.agenticx/crontask/<task_id>/(每个定时任务独占一个子目录,与 automation:<task_id> 对话一一对应)
  • Python venv:一律在任务根下 <任务根>/.venv,用 <任务根>/.venv/bin/pip / python;不要把定时任务专属依赖装到仓库 .venv 或任意路径,除非该路径就是用户指定的任务根。
  • 脚本、数据、日志、临时文件、辅助工具:全部放在任务根或其子目录内;不要在 ~/.agenticx/scripts、仓库根等散落(除非用户显式把其中某路径设为任务根)。

Meta-Agent:调用 schedule_task 之前(运行环境)

定时任务以后在 automation 专属会话里执行,不会在当时的 Near 对话里自动装包。在调用 schedule_task 之前应代用户准备好任务根下的环境:

  1. 先拿到 任务根:用户指定的 workspace,或创建任务后默认的 ~/.agenticx/crontask/<task_id>/(schedule_task 返回的 task_id 可用于路径)。
  2. 在任务根下 python3 -m venv .venv(若尚无),.venv/bin/pip install …。
  3. bash_exec 用 <任务根>/.venv/bin/python 试跑脚本,确认无 import 错误。
  4. instruction 里的命令必须与 同一解释器路径 一致。

默认工作区(摘要)

  • 未指定 workspace 时,Desktop 与 schedule_task 均写入 ~/.agenticx/crontask/<task_id> 并创建目录。
  • 删除任务时,UI 会二次确认是否同时删除该目录下的本地文件(仅针对上述 crontask 子目录,不随意删除用户任意路径)。

用 schedule_task 创建任务(对话 / Meta-Agent)

在 instruction(提示词)里写清:

  1. 何时跑:已在工具参数里用 frequency_type / time / days 表达;提示词内可再写一句业务语义(如「交易日 9:28」)便于人读。
  2. 怎么跑:必须要求 真实执行(如 bash_exec + python3),禁止「只给代码不运行」。
  3. 输出格式:给出严格版式(标题、字段、单位),并写明「最终回复只允许该版式,禁止工具 JSON」。
  4. 失败:简短错误(接口/库/网络),不超过若干行,不要教程、不要反问。
  5. 依赖:写明 pip install 包名;执行环境以本机为准。

可选参数 workspace:仅当用户明确要求固定目录时填写;否则留空使用默认 crontask 目录。

任务执行时(automation 会话)

会话 avatar_id 为 automation:<task_id> 时,后端会注入执行器系统提示,强调:

  • 先工具执行、再按用户版式输出;
  • 不在最终回复粘贴 schedule_task 等原始 JSON;
  • 失败简短说明。

编写或审阅提示词时,应与此行为一致。

验收清单

  • 提示词是否要求实际跑命令并得到数据?
  • 是否定义了唯一允许的输出模板?
  • 是否说明非交易日 / 无数据时的单行或短输出?
  • 是否需要默认 crontask 路径下的脚本文件(便于复跑与排障)?
