What This Skill Does

The eyebot-cronbot skill serves as a robust task scheduler and automation engine tailored specifically for the OpenClaw AI ecosystem and blockchain operations. It enables users to move beyond manual interaction by creating autonomous workflows that execute transactions based on time-based schedules, market conditions, or specific on-chain events. By integrating cron-style timing with blockchain data, it acts as a decentralized personal assistant for your assets, ensuring that your strategies are executed with precision regardless of your active presence.

Installation

To integrate this skill into your OpenClaw environment, ensure you have the core agent interface running and permissions enabled for task scheduling. Execute the following command in your terminal:

clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/eyebots/eyebot-cronbot

Once installed, verify the configuration by running eyebot cronbot list to ensure the heartbeat of the service is active and communicating with your configured blockchain providers.

Use Cases

CronBot excels in scenarios where timing is critical to financial outcomes. Common use cases include:

• Dollar-Cost Averaging (DCA): Automate regular, periodic purchases to mitigate market volatility.
• Yield Optimization: Automatically claim and compound staking rewards at optimal intervals to maximize APY.
• Proactive Risk Management: Monitor wallet balances and trigger emergency transfers if thresholds drop below safety levels.
• Gas Optimization: Queue transactions to execute only when network gas fees fall below a specific Gwei target, saving on transaction overhead.

Example Prompts

1. "CronBot, please schedule a task to swap 0.5 ETH for USDC every Monday at 8 AM UTC."
2. "Set up a trigger to alert me and execute a buy order for LINK if the price drops below $12."
3. "List all my active automated tasks and cancel the one related to the inactive liquidity pool."

Tips & Limitations

To maximize the efficiency of CronBot, always ensure your wallet has sufficient native tokens to cover gas fees for automated transactions, as the agent cannot execute trades if the account is underfunded. When using price triggers, be aware of market slippage; it is recommended to pair these with strict price bounds. Keep in mind that blockchain state latency can occasionally cause a delay of a few seconds between a trigger condition being met and the transaction submission. Always double-check recurring schedules to avoid unintended wallet drainage.
