What it does
Convex Crons is an agent skill from openclaw/clawhub. Add recurring scheduled jobs (crons) to the Convex app.
Its SKILL.md is about 190 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 and Background jobs. The repository describes itself as: Skill + Plugin Registry for OpenClaw. The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- Tasks that involve Scheduled and recurring tasks
- Tasks that involve Background jobs
Example prompts
- “/convex-crons”
Workflow steps
4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Create convex/crons.ts with cronJobs().
- Schedule internal functions (never public api.*) at the right interval.
- Make handlers idempotent (safe to re-run); keep each run small.
- Verify the job appears in the dashboard schedule.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit d044664. 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.
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
Convex Crons loads about 189 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 17 tokens; SKILL.md has 76 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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.

Define recurring jobs in convex/crons.ts targeting internal functions, with sane intervals and idempotent handlers.
Workflow
- Create convex/crons.ts with cronJobs().
- Schedule internal functions (never public api.*) at the right interval.
- Make handlers idempotent (safe to re-run); keep each run small.
- Verify the job appears in the dashboard schedule.

- Keep cron handlers small + idempotent.
- Don't poll tight intervals for things a subscription can push.
