Automations overview

Automate recurring work by declaring schedules in your tessl.json and pushing them to your default branch.

Automations run plugins on a schedule so recurring work happens without CI or GitHub Actions configuration.

Define an automation in tessl.json

The primary way to create an automation is to declare a schedule in your project's tessl.json. Add a schedules block and push it to your default branch. Tessl syncs the manifest and creates the schedule when it can resolve the project and apply the entry. The schedule lives next to the code it runs against, so it is reviewed and version-controlled like any other change.

See Schedules for prerequisites, the schedules block reference, validation, and schedule behavior.
