schedule

Schedules are named, reusable cadences (cron expression + timezone) that drive recurring operations — sync applies, run commands, and backup runs. The schedule command surface has two sub-groups: schedule (cadence CRUD) and schedule tasks (management of the recurring operations attached to a schedule).
