Cronicorn

Cronicorn lets an assistant manage adaptive cron jobs and HTTP endpoint schedules, where AI adjusts polling frequency from response data.

What you can do

• Add and manage HTTP endpoint jobs with a baseline cron or interval schedule
• Describe in plain English what matters in responses, such as thresholds and coordination logic
• Let the AI adapt polling frequency, coordinate sibling endpoints and trigger recovery actions
• Rely on safety constraints such as min/max intervals and TTL-based hints that expire
• Fall back to traditional cron and interval scheduling when AI adaptation is not wanted

When to use it

Useful when you want an assistant to set up and tune scheduled HTTP polling jobs, for example monitoring an API or endpoint whose ideal check frequency changes with its responses, instead of hand-editing cron configs.

Requirements

Runs as a local stdio process from the npm package @cronicorn/mcp-server, so Node.js is needed. Requires a Cronicorn account and the CRONICORN_API_URL environment variable; CRONICORN_WEB_URL is used for the OAuth device flow. Network access to the Cronicorn service is required. Desktop only.
