OpenOri has two scheduling systems that work together: reminders for quick time-based alerts, and scheduled tasks for recurring autonomous agent jobs.
Reminders (intents)
Reminders are lightweight, time-based nudges. Tell OpenOri when you need to be reminded, and it handles the rest.
Setting a reminder
Just say it naturally:
Remind me to take a walk in 30 minutes
Remind me to call Sarah at 3pm
Every morning at 9am, remind me to check my email
OpenOri creates an intent — a scheduled action that fires at the right time with a toast notification and an OS-native alert (banner on macOS, notification toast on Windows).
What happens when a reminder fires
- A toast notification appears in the app with the reminder message
- An OS-native notification pops up (even if OpenOri is minimized)
- One-shot reminders auto-delete after firing — no cleanup needed
- Recurring reminders advance to the next fire time automatically
Managing reminders
You can manage your reminders conversationally:
| You say… | OpenOri does… |
|---|
| ”What reminders do I have?” | Lists all pending reminders |
| ”Cancel the walk reminder” | Cancels it |
| ”Change my 3pm reminder to 4pm” | Reschedules it |
| ”Clear all old reminders” | Purges completed/fired reminders |
Reminders are automatically cleaned up. One-shot reminders delete themselves after firing. On restart, any stale completed reminders are purged automatically.
Recurrence options
| Expression | Fires… |
|---|
"daily" / "every day" | Once per day at the same time |
"weekly" / "every week" | Once per week |
"hourly" / "every hour" | Every hour |
"every 2 hours" | Every 2 hours |
"every 30 minutes" | Every 30 minutes |
"weekdays" / "every weekday" | Monday through Friday |
Scheduled tasks
Scheduled tasks are more powerful — they’re full autonomous agent jobs that run on a schedule. Unlike reminders (which are simple alerts), scheduled tasks execute tools, search the web, check connectors, and produce results.
Creating a task
Tell OpenOri what you want automated:
Every weekday at 9am, search Hacker News for AI developments and give me a 5-bullet summary
Every Friday at 5pm, summarize this week's Git commits
Every 2 hours, check if example.com is responding
OpenOri detects the recurring intent, creates the schedule, and links it to the current thread.
Example schedules
| Schedule | What it does |
|---|
| ”Every morning at 8am, tell me about the weather and my calendar” | Daily briefing combining web search and calendar data |
| ”Every 2 hours, check if example.com is responding” | Uptime monitoring with alerts |
| ”Every Friday at 5pm, summarize this week’s Git commits” | Weekly development digest |
| ”Every day at 9am, search for news about my competitors” | Competitive intelligence on autopilot |
Managing schedules
The Schedules panel in the sidebar (CalendarClock icon) gives you full control:
- View all schedules — see every active and paused schedule
- Toggle on/off — pause and resume individual schedules
- Delete — remove schedules you no longer need
- Click to preview — opens details in the right panel for editing
Preview panel
Click any schedule in the sidebar list to open its detail view in the right panel. From there you can:
- Edit the prompt, frequency, or timing
- See the linked thread
- Review the last run time and next scheduled run
Home view
A compact schedule summary appears on the Home screen when you have active schedules.
Thread linking
Schedules created from conversations are linked to their thread:
- Click a schedule on the Home view to jump to the conversation that created it
- Past run results appear in the linked thread’s context
Scheduled tasks use the same tools as regular conversations — web search, file reading, connectors, and more. Anything you can ask OpenOri in a chat, you can schedule.
Reminders vs. scheduled tasks
| Reminders | Scheduled tasks |
|---|
| Purpose | Quick alerts at a specific time | Autonomous agent jobs |
| Complexity | Simple notification | Full tool execution |
| Output | Toast + OS notification | Rich results in linked thread |
| Cleanup | Auto-deletes after firing | Persists until you delete |
| Example | ”Remind me to call Sarah at 3pm" | "Every morning, summarize my PRs” |
