Skill: Remind Me

When to use

• User says "remind me to...", "set a reminder", "set an alarm"
• User says "every Monday at 9 AM...", "every 30 minutes check..."
• User says "in 20 minutes tell me...", "at 3 PM send me..."
• User wants to schedule a recurring cron job via chat
• User says "cancel my reminder", "delete that cron", "stop the alert"
• User says "list my reminders", "what reminders do I have?"
• User wants to know what cron jobs are active in this chat

When NOT to use

• User wants to check a stock price right now (not scheduled) → use stock-price-checker-pro
• User wants to run a one-time task immediately (no scheduling involved)

⚠️ CRITICAL: Always resolve these THREE things before creating a reminder

Before calling the script, you MUST have all three resolved:

Missing field rules

• WHAT is missing → Ask: "What would you like me to remind you about?"
• WHEN is missing AND cannot be reasonably assumed → Ask: "How often, or at what time?"
• WHEN is missing BUT can be reasonably assumed as once → Assume one-shot, but confirm: "Just once, right?"
• WHERE is always auto-detected → Never ask the user for this. Read it from session context (see below).

Do NOT create the job until all three are confirmed.

Step 1 — Auto-detect channel and chat ID from session context

The source channel and chat ID are available in your session context. Extract them before doing anything else.

• channel: the platform the message arrived on (e.g. telegram, discord)
• chatId / to: the specific chat or user ID within that platform (e.g. <chatId>)

These two values are passed as --channel and --to to the script. Never ask the user for these. Never hardcode them. Always read from session context.

Step 2 — Parse the user's intent

From the user's natural language request, extract:

Schedule type

Map what the user said to one of three prefixed schedule strings:

One-shot vs recurring

• at: → always one-shot (--once is auto-set by the script)
• every: or cron: → recurring by default
• If user says "just once" or "one time" with a cron: or every: → pass --once

Job name

Generate a short, descriptive name from the user's request.

• "Remind me to check NVDA every Monday" → "NVDA Check - Monday 9AM"
• "Alert me in 20 minutes" → "Alert - 20min"
• "Grocery reminder at noon" → "Groceries - Noon"

Message

The message is what the agent will say or do when the job fires. Craft it clearly so the agent knows exactly what to do:

• "Remind me to do groceries" → "Reminder: Time to do groceries! 🛒"
• "Check NVDA every Monday at 9 AM" → "Check the current NVDA stock price and send me a summary."
• "Send me a motivational quote every morning" → "Send me an inspiring motivational quote to start the day."

Step 3 — Clarification rules (ask before acting)

Ask when:

1. No schedule at all: "Remind me to call John" → no time/frequency given

> Ask: "Sure! When would you like me to remind you — just once at a specific time, or on a recurring schedule?"

1. Ambiguous frequency: "Remind me often" or "check regularly"

> Ask: "How often? Every hour, every day, or something else?"

1. Conflicting signals: "Remind me every Monday but just once"

> Ask: "Just to confirm — should this be a one-time reminder or repeat every Monday?"

Do NOT ask when:

• Everything is clear: "Remind me every Monday at 9 AM to check NVDA" → create immediately
• One-shot is obvious from context: "Remind me in 20 minutes" → at:20m, once
• User confirms after your clarification question → proceed immediately

Confirmation before creating (always):

Before calling the script, summarise what you're about to set up and get a quick confirmation:

"Got it! Here's what I'll set up: ⏰ Reminder: Check NVDA stock price 🔁 Schedule: Every Monday at 9 AM 📱 Delivered to: This chat Shall I go ahead?"

Only proceed after user confirms.

Commands

Create a reminder

uv run /root/.openclaw/workspace/skills/remind-me/src/main.py create \
  "<job name>" \
  "<what to say or do>" \
  "<every:duration | cron:expr | at:duration>" \
  "<channel>" \
  "<chatId>" \
  [once]

List reminders for this chat

uv run /root/.openclaw/workspace/skills/remind-me/src/main.py list \
  "<channel>" \
  "<chatId>"

Cancel a reminder by name

uv run /root/.openclaw/workspace/skills/remind-me/src/main.py cancel name "<job name>"

Cancel a reminder by ID

uv run /root/.openclaw/workspace/skills/remind-me/src/main.py cancel id "<job id>"

Examples

Example 1 — Clear request, no clarification needed

User: "Remind me every Monday at 9 AM to check NVDA"

1. Detect: channel=telegram, to=<chatId>
2. Parse: WHAT="Check NVDA stock price", WHEN=cron:0 9 * * 1, one-shot=false
3. Confirm with user
4. Run:

uv run /root/.openclaw/workspace/skills/remind-me/src/main.py create \
  "NVDA Check - Monday 9AM" \
  "Check the current NVDA stock price and send me a summary." \
  "cron:0 9 * * 1" \
  "telegram" \
  "<chatId>"

Example 2 — Missing frequency, ask first

User: "Remind me to go do groceries by 12 PM"

1. Detect: channel=telegram, to=<chatId>
2. Parse: WHAT="Do groceries", WHEN=12 PM but frequency unclear
3. Ask: "Just to confirm — is this a one-time reminder for today at noon, or should I remind you every day at 12 PM?"
4. User says: "Just today"
5. Compute duration from now to today's noon → e.g. at:3h30m
6. Confirm, then run:

uv run /root/.openclaw/workspace/skills/remind-me/src/main.py create \
  "Groceries - Noon" \
  "Reminder: Time to go do groceries! 🛒" \
  "at:3h30m" \
  "telegram" \
  "<chatId>" \
  once

Example 3 — List reminders

User: "What reminders do I have?"

uv run /root/.openclaw/workspace/skills/remind-me/src/main.py list \
  "telegram" \
  "<chatId>"

Format the output as a readable list, not raw JSON. Example response:

You have 2 active reminders in this chat: 1. NVDA Check - Monday 9AM 🔁 Every Monday at 9 AM _"Check the current NVDA stock price..."_ Next run: Mon 10 Mar 2026, 09:00 2. Groceries - Noon (one-time) _"Time to go do groceries!"_ Runs in: 3h 30m

Example 4 — Cancel a reminder

User: "Cancel my NVDA reminder"

1. List jobs for this channel/chat first (internally)
2. Find the matching job by name
3. Confirm: "Cancel NVDA Check - Monday 9AM? This will stop all future runs."
4. User confirms
5. Run:

uv run /root/.openclaw/workspace/skills/remind-me/src/main.py cancel name "NVDA Check - Monday 9AM"

Example 5 — One-shot in-chat reminder

User: "In 30 seconds send me a love letter"

uv run /root/.openclaw/workspace/skills/remind-me/src/main.py create \
  "Love Letter - 30s" \
  "Write a beautiful, heartfelt love letter. Make it romantic and touching." \
  "at:30s" \
  "telegram" \
  "<chatId>"

Channel scoping rules

• Jobs created from Group A are only visible when listing from Group A
• Jobs created from Group B are only visible when listing from Group B
• Jobs created from the main/private chat are visible only in that main chat
• The script handles this automatically via the [remind-me:channel:chatId] tag embedded in each job's description
• Never show a user jobs that belong to a different chat

Output formatting

After running any command, always format the result in plain conversational language — never dump raw JSON to the user.

On create success:

✅ Done! I've set up your reminder: ⏰ NVDA Check — Every Monday at 9 AM 📱 Delivered to this chat

On list (empty):

You have no active reminders in this chat.

On cancel success:

✅ Reminder "NVDA Check - Monday 9AM" has been cancelled.

On error:

❌ Something went wrong: <error message> Want me to try again?

Notes

• uv run auto-installs dependencies from the inline script header — no pip or venv needed.
• The script calls openclaw cron CLI internally — the gateway must be running.
• Always use --channel "last" behaviour naturally: since --to is set to the originating chat ID, delivery is always back to the right place.
• Do NOT use sessions_spawn, web search, or any other tool to create cron jobs — always go through this script.
• Do NOT hardcode channel IDs. Always read from session context.
• The at: schedule prefix does not support standard cron expressions — use cron: for those.
