Feature Request: Native Scheduling for Opencode #11232

@dzianisv

Description

@dzianisv

Summary

Add native scheduling capabilities to opencode (e.g., opencode schedule --cron '0 9 * * *' --skill recruiter-response).

Motivation

Currently, users must rely on OS-level tools like crontab or SystemD timers to run recurring tasks. This creates friction and platform dependency (e.g., Windows vs. macOS/Linux). A native scheduler would improve the user experience for autonomous agents.

Proposed Solution

  • Add a schedule command.
  • Allow defining schedules via cron syntax or natural language (if possible).
  • Persist schedules in the opencode configuration.
  • Run a background daemon to handle scheduled tasks (could leverage opencode serve).
