Manage cron jobs for the Gateway scheduler.

• Cron jobs: Cron jobs

Tip: run openclaw cron --help for the full command surface.

Note: isolated cron add jobs default to --announce delivery. Use --deliver for full output or --no-deliver to keep output internal. To opt into the legacy main-summary path, pass --post-prefix (or other --post-* options) without delivery flags.

Common edits

Update delivery settings without changing the message:

openclaw cron edit <job-id> --announce --channel telegram --to "123456789"

Disable delivery for an isolated job:

openclaw cron edit <job-id> --no-deliver

Deliver full output (instead of announce):

openclaw cron edit <job-id> --deliver --channel slack --to "channel:C1234567890"
