Cron Job Manager

Inspect, render, install, or remove named user crontab jobs with explicit mutation confirmation and marker-bounded edits. Use on Unix-like systems when a user wants recurring local command scheduling through cron rather than a platform-specific automation service.

File contents

Cron Job Manager

Use bin/cron-job-manager. Listing and rendering are read-only. Installation and removal require the user to approve the exact rendered entry and pass --confirm.

Workflow

  1. Run list.
  2. Run render --name ... --schedule ... --command ... and show the exact entry.
  3. Confirm command paths, quoting, environment, output handling, and schedule with the user.
  4. Run install ... --confirm.
  5. Run list again and report the installed marker.
  6. Remove only by exact name with remove --name ... --confirm.

Read references/cron-safety.md before scheduling destructive, privileged, networked, or high-frequency commands.
