What This Skill Covers

  • When a Worker is invoked via a Cron Trigger, the scheduled() handler handles the invocation.
  • Main sections: Background, Syntax, Properties, Handle multiple cron triggers, Methods.

Workflow

  1. Open the most relevant file under docs/ for the exact documented workflow and wording.
  2. Open schemas/ files for exact structured contracts.
  3. Open examples/ files for concrete requests, commands, snippets, and manifests.
  4. Do not add behavior or configuration that is not present in the attached source files.
