heartbeat-cron
✓Create and refine HEARTBEAT.md files for murmur — a CLI daemon that runs scheduled Claude prompts on a cron or interval schedule. Use this skill when the user wants to set up a recurring automated action (e.g., "monitor my GitHub issues", "check Hacker News for AI articles", "watch my endpoints", "send me a daily digest"). Guides the user through an interview, drafts the heartbeat prompt, tests it, and registers it with murmur's scheduler. Triggers: heartbeat, murmur, recurring task, scheduled action, cron, monitor, watch, automate, periodic check, scheduled prompt.

Create well-crafted HEARTBEAT.md files for murmur through a structured interview, test run, and refinement loop.
Murmur is a minimal scheduler. It reads a HEARTBEAT.md file, sends its contents to Claude on a schedule, and classifies the response:
Murmur cannot notify the user. It only runs the prompt and logs the result. If the user wants notifications (Slack, Telegram, push), the HEARTBEAT.md itself must include the delivery step. The heartbeat is the entire pipeline: gather data → decide → act → deliver.
