Schedule: planned tasks

Schedule: planned tasks

In the Schedule area (navigation → Schedule) you create things that should happen at a certain time – once or recurring.

Two types:

TypeWhat happens
ReminderYou (or selected people) get a notification. Optionally a calendar event is created as well.
AI taskThe AI works on the job autonomously at the scheduled time and posts its result into the associated chat.

Creating one

  1. Choose "New" in the schedule (or ask the AI in chat: "remind me every Monday at 9 about the weekly report").
  2. Pick the type: reminder or AI task.
  3. Enter a title and – depending on the type – a message or a prompt.
  4. Set the time: once at a date/time, or recurring (daily, weekly, monthly, yearly). The timezone is shown.
  5. Choose the target (see below).

Target and chat

Every planned task needs a place where its result lands:

  • Reminder only – a plain notification, no reference.
  • List / task – the reminder or AI run refers to a list or a specific task. For reminders tied to a task you can enable "also post into the task chat" – then the note stays permanently in the history, not just as a transient notification.
  • Own chat (private) – Liza creates a private chat where the task works and files its results.

Via "Open chat" you see the full transcript of an AI run including its work steps and token usage.

Where an AI task runs

ExecutionRequirement
Server (no desktop)Runs managed on the Liza AI and counts against your AI credit. No machine needs to be on.
Desktop (file access)Handed to the desktop app and executed autonomously there – needed when the task requires local files. The app must be running.

For AI tasks you also choose how the AI works: Agent (may read Liza data and post) or Text (a summary only).

With Source you optionally restrict what the AI may refer to (one or more lists; empty = all).

Managing

Every task shows status, next and last run, and the number of runs:

StatusMeaning
ActiveRunning as planned.
PausedTemporarily does not fire.
DoneA one-off task has run (or max runs was reached).
ErrorThe last run failed; the reason is shown.
CanceledStopped for good.

Actions: Test now (fire immediately without changing the schedule), Edit, Pause/Resume, Cancel.

Filters at the top: All, AI tasks, Reminders.

For developers

The same functions exist as MCP tools (schedule_task, list_scheduled_tasks, update_scheduled_task, pause_scheduled_task, cancel_scheduled_task) – see Scheduled tasks (MCP).
