Nested shell-manual reference for recurring, time-driven work: host scheduler choice, LingTai wake-by-mailbox-drop, short prompts, script hygiene, macOS launchd, Linux systemd timers, crontab, and process-tree hazards.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Scheduled work
Open this for recurring or time-triggered work. The host scheduler is an
external wake mechanism; Shell has no built-in recurring scheduler.
## Pick the trigger
- **Time-driven substantive work** (“every hour, do X”): use a host scheduler.
- **Event-driven work with a deadline** (“when Y arrives, respond quickly”): use
the event source or mailbox/watch, not cron.
- **Periodic work inside an active turn**: compare a stored timestamp in the
turn loop, not an external scheduler.
Prefer an event watch when it is the real trigger; polling every cycle burns
turns when nothing changed.
## Wake-by-mailbox contract
For an explicitly human-approved schedule using the human sender, publish one
complete message to the human outbox (retain the scheduler `identity.via`; this
is not an interactive human instruction or permission to expand the schedule):
```text
<project>/.lingtai/human/mailbox/outbox/<uuid>/message.json
```
Use a fresh UUID and a message like:
```json
{
"id": "<uuid>", "_mailbox_id": "<uuid>", "from": "human",
"to": ["<agent-address>"], "cc": [], "subject": "<short subject>",
"message": "Use the named skill; this is the time-bound context.",

How to install
mdr add lingtai-ai/lingtai-kernel/bash-scheduled-work@sha256:0cb3ae2f1b9afdf5The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.1.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
