Schedule recurring agent tasks using cron expressions. Use when the user asks to run something on a schedule, check something periodically, automate a recurring task, set up a cron job, or wants work to happen while they're away. Trigger words: schedule, recurring, cron, every hour, every day, run daily, periodic, automated.

Install

one command, takes just this skill from the repository 
npx skills add https://github.com/JKHeadley/instar --skill instar-scheduler

How to use it

Copy the folder

Take jkheadley/instar-scheduler from the repository into ~/.claude/skills for personal use, or into .claude/skills inside a project.

Check the name does not clash

The agent identifies a skill by the name field in its header. Two skills with the same name cannot sit side by side — one of them will be ignored.

Install what it needs

The instructions reference npx. Without those the skill loads but fails at the first command.
