SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Trigger-based orchestration reduces memory burden and coordination overhead by turning follow-ups into programmable wake-up events that can bind to objectives and drive automated actions across systems and channels.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Schedule reminders with cron, once, or interval to wake up at a chosen time.
  • Wait for replies or external events using on_message, webhook, or poll triggers.
  • Bind triggers to objectives, manage lifecycle (propose_objective, complete_objective), and prevent duplicates with list_triggers.
  • Channel-aware delivery and cross-channel coordination to ensure results go to the correct audience.

Quick Start

Propose an objective and create a trigger with a desired wake policy to begin automated follow-ups.

FAQPage Schema
How do I schedule a cron trigger for automated reminders?▼

You can schedule reminders by binding a trigger to an objective and setting a cron wake policy. This creates a programmable wake-up event that drives automated follow-up actions at your specified time intervals.

What is trigger-based orchestration for objective binding?▼

Trigger-based orchestration binds wake-up events to objectives using a valid trigger class and context. This reduces memory burden and coordination overhead by programmatically driving automated follow-up actions across systems and channels.

Can I use a webhook trigger to wait for external events across channels?▼

Yes, webhook triggers wait for external events and replies across channels. The system enforces channel-aware delivery and cross-channel coordination to ensure automated results reach the correct audience.

How do I prevent duplicate triggers when polling for changes?▼

You prevent duplicate triggers by calling the list triggers function before creating new ones. This verifies existing poll triggers and ensures proper objective lifecycle management without overlapping wake-up policies.

Does trigger management support interval and one-time wake policies?▼

Yes, trigger management enforces explicit wake policy types including interval, once, cron, poll, and webhook. You select a valid policy type and bind it to your objective using a proper trigger class and context.

What are the limitations of using a poll trigger for waiting on replies?▼

Using a poll trigger for replies requires explicit objective binding and a valid trigger class. You must manage the objective lifecycle and configure channel-aware delivery to prevent missed wake-up events across systems.
