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.
Common edits
