The assistant

Scheduled AI messages

The assistant · 2 min read

Write a prompt now and ask a supported AI target to receive it later while Agentfly is open.

When you would want it

A reminder that can actually reach the assistant is useful for follow-up reviews, delayed provider windows, and work you want to queue without leaving an agent running.

Where to find it

  • All Features → Scheduled AI messages
  • Schedule
  • Turn on or off
  • Settings

What you get out of it

  • A follow-up review at 6pm reaches the agent instead of reaching a notepad.
  • With several CLIs running in split terminals, each is its own target - so a message written for Codex goes to Codex, not to whichever pane happened to be focused.
  • The one-time permission means an agent mid-thought never gets interrupted by something you queued an hour ago.
  • Nothing is silently dropped: a message that could not be delivered says so and offers to run.

How to use it, step by step

  1. Right-click the terminal running your agent and choose Schedule a message, or run Schedule an AI Message from the palette.
  2. Write the message and pick a local time for it.
  3. Choose where it goes: the built-in assistant, or any terminal with an agent in it - each one is listed by the CLI running there.
  4. For a terminal target, right-click it and choose Allow the next scheduled message while its prompt is sitting idle.
  5. Leave Agentfly open. At the chosen time the message is typed into that target.
  6. If Agentfly was closed or the target was busy, the message is marked missed and waits for you to choose Run now.

Why this beats the usual way

A reminder app can tell you to prompt your agent. Agentfly actually prompts it - into the right terminal, at the right time, only when that agent is genuinely idle and waiting.
