Automations

An automation (RADIQ calls it a pipe) is an instruction RADIQ runs on a schedule, such as a daily recap, a weekly client report, or a reminder about promises you made in meetings. It keeps running when your AI chat is closed.

Create one by asking

Describe what you want, when, and where the result should go:

Every weekday at 9am, look at yesterday's work and meetings and send me a standup draft as a notification.

Every Friday at 5pm, list what I promised in this week's client calls and send it to my Telegram.

Your AI then:

1. checks your existing automations, so it doesn't make a duplicate;
2. creates the pipe with a schedule RADIQ understands;
3. runs it once straight away and shows you the result;
4. fixes any warning (for example, a schedule RADIQ couldn't read) before telling you it's set.

You'll find it in the RADIQ app under Automation.

Recipes to copy

Paste one of these into Claude, Codex or Hermes, or into RADIQ's Chat, and adjust it.

Every weekday at 9am, look at yesterday's work and meetings and write my standup: done, next, blockers. Send it as a notification.

Every Friday at 5pm, list everything I promised someone in this week's meetings, with who and when, and send it to my Telegram.

Every day at 6pm, summarise where my time went today by project and app, and save it as a markdown file in my Documents folder.

Every Monday at 8am, list the open loops from last week's client calls and draft a follow-up line for each one.

Every 2 hours on weekdays, check whether I said I'd send someone something and haven't yet, and remind me with a notification.

Every Sunday at 7pm, write a weekly review: wins, what slipped, and the three things to focus on next week.

Results go where you ask: a notification, a file, or a connected app such as Telegram or Slack. Connect those first in Connections.

Change, pause or test

Change my standup automation to 8:30am.

Pause the Friday client report until further notice.

Run the standup automation now and show me what it produces.

Why didn't my daily recap run this morning?

To delete an automation, use the Automation section of the RADIQ app. Your AI can pause one but can't delete it.

Create one in the app

Open Automation in RADIQ and click create automation. You can also start from a suggestion under things to try. In the app, an automation can start on a schedule or when something happens:

• Meetings: when a meeting starts or ends, or a calendar event starts.
• After another automation finishes, to chain steps.
• Connected apps: for example a new Slack message in a channel, a new GitHub issue or pull request, a Linear issue assigned to you, a Notion page edited, a new Outlook email, or a new Obsidian note.

Each automation card shows when it last ran and whether that run failed. From the card you can run automation, turn auto-run on or off, star it, change its AI preset, or open it in Chat to change it. If an automation needs a connection you haven't set up, it says so and links to Connections.

Schedules

Times use your computer's time zone. If you write cron schedules yourself, use day names (MON-FRI) rather than numbers. Automations your AI creates run on a schedule; for meeting or app triggers, create the automation in the app.

Where results go

• A notification on your computer, with optional buttons such as "draft reply".
• A file on your computer, such as a markdown report.
• Apps you've connected in RADIQ, such as Telegram, Slack or Discord. Connect them first in RADIQ's Connections.
• Back into RADIQ, for example as a memory or a meeting note.

How automations run

• RADIQ's own agent runs each automation, using the AI model set for that pipe (RADIQ Cloud by default; change it in the pipe's settings in the app). Automations don't use your Claude or ChatGPT chat subscription.
• RADIQ must be running and your computer awake at the scheduled time.
• Each run is logged. Ask your AI to read the logs, or open the pipe in Automation.
