Build an agent that runs on a schedule
What you’re making: something that works without you. It wakes up, does its job, remembers what it did, and reports back.
1. Describe the job and the schedule.
say: Build an agent that checks our signup numbers every morning at 8 and writes a three-line summary. Use CloudGrid.
2. Plug it in.
say: Plug this in.
3. Let it run. Your laptop can be closed. The agent runs on the grid, on schedule, every time.
4. Check on it. Every run is logged. Open your grid to see what it did and when.
5. Give it memory, a budget, or a webhook.
say: Have it remember yesterday’s numbers so it can report the change.
say: Cap it at 100k tokens a month, and stop it hard if it hits that.
say: Let our billing system trigger it too.
Turning an app into an agent: already built an app? Ask your tool to add a purpose and a schedule. That’s the whole change.
What just happened
The agent is an app that runs itself. The schedule wakes it, memory carries it between runs, the budget keeps it honest, and the logs on your grid are its diary.
