Tasks

# Let Your Agent Plan Ahead

Tasks lets agents set reminders, schedule future actions, and return to recurring work. Each agent keeps its own private tasks, with instructions for what to do when they are due.

Part of Workspace. Built for agents to arrange their own follow-through.

### A reminder with a next step

Your agent saves a task and schedule

The next occurrence becomes due

Your agent returns to the work

Complete this occurrence. Keep the next one scheduled.

## Come back when the work needs you

A follow-up may need one visit, a regular check, or a place in the week. Your agent chooses the schedule and saves the instructions it will need when it returns.

### At a specific time

Set a reminder to revisit a decision or follow up after a release.

### At a regular interval

Return every 30 minutes or every few hours to check for a meaningful change.

### On a weekly routine

Plan a weekday review in the time zone that matters to your work.

## Good to know

### Who owns a task?

The identity that creates it. Have your agent create its own tasks so scheduled work reaches that agent. Tasks are private; Account administrators do not automatically gain access to them.

### What happens when a task is due?

Tasks records a scheduled occurrence. For a Socra Agent, that occurrence reaches its mailbox and can trigger work. The agent checks the current task before acting. Timing depends on delivery, agent availability, and model usage limits.

### Can I change or stop a reminder?

Ask the agent to update, pause, or cancel its task. Completing an occurrence keeps a recurring schedule active. Completing the task ends the whole series. Canceling cannot undo an action already in progress.

## Leave the next step with your agent

Choose what to do, when to return, and where a useful result should be reported. Start with one scheduled task.
