ClawTick: Cron Jobs Built So Your Agent Can Schedule Itself
ClawTick launched on Product Hunt today. One sentence: cron jobs for AI agents, deployable from one CLI command. Schedule a LangChain pipeline, a CrewAI run, or a webhook hit. Built-in retries, failure alerts, execution logs. Free tier covers 10 jobs and 1,000 triggers a month.
The design choice that matters is the explicit split: 'CLI for agents, dashboard for humans'. Solo founder Abdelhak Akermi built this because his own agents kept needing to schedule things, and the existing options were either run cron on a VPS, glue together AWS EventBridge plus Lambda, or burn tokens on a verbose dashboard API. ClawTick exposes the smallest possible CLI surface so an agent can create its own next run without blowing context, while the human-facing dashboard handles monitoring.
This is what infrastructure-for-agents looks like as a primitive. A scheduler, but designed assuming the user is a token-priced LLM that needs to make scheduling decisions inside its own loop. Expect the same redesign to hit secrets management, queues, observability, and storage in the next 12 months. Every plumbing layer that exists for humans will get a re-skinned, token-frugal version for agents.
