Create scheduled task or reminder. An agent skill from openakita/openakita.

  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Schedule Task is an agent skill from openakita/openakita. Create scheduled task or reminder. IMPORTANT - must actually call this tool to create task. Just saying 'OK I will remind you' does NOT create the task. Task types - (1) reminder for simple messages, (2) task for AI operations.

Its SKILL.md is about 430 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files (for example `agents/openai.yaml`).

It sits in Productivity & Automation, covering Scheduled and recurring tasks. The repository describes itself as: An open-source AI assistant framework with skills and agent architecture. The licence is AGPL-3.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Scheduled and recurring tasks

Example prompts

  • “OK I will remind you”
  • “/schedule-task”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 5f5b38d. 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

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are json).

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    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

Schedule Task loads about 433 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 60 tokens; SKILL.md has 83 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~60
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~433

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.
