# HEARTBEAT.md — Scheduled Tasks

What the agent should do **on a schedule** without being pinged each time.
In practice, something outside the model must trigger runs (cron, CI, n8n,
“run heartbeat” shortcut, or a host product’s scheduled agent). This file
is the **checklist** those triggers should execute — it does not install a
scheduler by itself.

**Autonomy limit:** never run destructive, financial, or
send-on-behalf-of-user actions without explicit confirmation — notify
instead.
