What it does
Set recurring checks or completion watches with `sno heartbeat` and its persistent log reader. Use for periodic reports or unattended long runs. Not for calendar scheduling or commands watched directly.
heartbeat
Use the sno heartbeat command installed by sno setup. This skill supplies
instructions, not a program copy. If the command names a missing prerequisite, install
that tool and retry. On macOS install Homebrew coreutils (GNU timeout, tail and mv) and
put its libexec/gnubin directory on PATH; newer versions of the command also find the
g-prefixed names without it, and then the reader command they print says gtail. Install bash
and flock when required. Windows requires WSL.
The bundled command contract pins the public syntax
checked by this skill's offline self-test. Use sno heartbeat --help for the installed program.
Before arming, verify that this harness provides both background execution and a
persistent reader that delivers new output into the agent's conversation. If either is
unsupported or unverified, skip this skill and name the missing capability. The examples
below require those tools and use Claude Code's Bash and Monitor tool names; other harnesses use
their own equivalents. A background process or a log file alone is insufficient.
