The job is done
before you sit down.
A portal you check every morning, a price you watch, a report you rebuild each Monday. Say it once and let Chrome do it in a background tab.
The prompt
A goal with a time and a rule
Every weekday at 8, check my supplier portal for
new invoices and tell me the total. If something
needs a decision, say so instead of guessing. HailBrowser proposes the schedule in the chat. It is only created when you press Create, so a page cannot add one behind your back.
What happens
- The schedule is stored with
chrome.alarmsand appears in the schedule list. - At the chosen time it opens a background tab, runs the goal and closes what it opened.
- A notification reports the result, and the run is saved in History like any other chat.
- If it needs a login, a payment or a CAPTCHA, it stops and tells you rather than waiting silently.
Stricter when nobody is watching
Scheduled runs follow the same tools but a tighter rule: they never send, buy, post or delete anything unless the goal says so. The goal is the permission. “Check the total” does not authorise “pay the invoice”.
That also means a scheduled job will not push through ambiguity. It reports what needs you, which is usually the point.
What to check
- The first run. Watch it once before you trust it on a schedule.
- The notification text, not just that a notification arrived.
- The queue. One run happens at a time, so a long job at 9 delays the job scheduled for 9:05.
What can go wrong
- Chrome was closed. The job runs once at the next start, not once for every missed interval.
- The site logged you out. The run stops and asks, or reports that it could not sign in.
- Another run is in progress. The job waits in the queue rather than interleaving clicks.
- The site changed. A moved button costs a decision, not a silent failure; the run reports where it stopped.
