# `openclaw cron`
|
||
|
||
Manage cron jobs for the Gateway scheduler.

||

|
||
|
||
Tip: run `openclaw cron --help` for the full command surface.
|
||
|
||
Note: isolated `cron add` jobs default to `--announce` delivery. Use `--no-deliver` to keep
|
||
output internal. `--deliver` remains as a deprecated alias for `--announce`.
|
||
|
||
Note: one-shot (`--at`) jobs delete after success by default. Use `--keep-after-run` to keep them.
|
||
|
||
Note: recurring jobs now use exponential retry backoff after consecutive errors (30s → 1m → 5m → 15m → 60m), then return to normal schedule after the next successful run.
|
||
|
||
Note: retention/pruning is controlled in config:
|
||
|
||
- `cron.sessionRetention` (default `24h`) prunes completed isolated run sessions.
|
||
- `cron.runLog.maxBytes` + `cron.runLog.keepLines` prune `~/.openclaw/cron/runs/<jobId>.jsonl`.

## Common edits
|
||
|
||
Update delivery settings without changing the message:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
openclaw cron edit <job-id> --announce --channel telegram --to "123456789"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Disable delivery for an isolated job:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
openclaw cron edit <job-id> --no-deliver
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Announce to a specific channel:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
openclaw cron edit <job-id> --announce --channel slack --to "channel:C1234567890"
|
||
```
