title: "Automations for repeatable jobs"
description: "Schedule daily and weekly workflows in OpenWork"

Use this when you need predictable recurring outputs.
## Why this pattern works
- Each automation maps to one business outcome.
- Outputs stay easy to inspect and debug.
- Team expectations stay predictable.
## Build the automation set
1. Open **Automations** (beta).
2. Create one job for each outcome, for example:
- Daily ops summary
- Weekly wins/blockers summary
- Recurring competitor scan
3. Keep each job single-purpose. Do not merge everything into one mega prompt.
4. Name jobs by outcome, not by implementation detail.
## Example split
- `daily-ops-summary`
- `weekly-team-brief`
- `competitor-scan-core`
## Debugging checklist
- Does each job write to a clear output path?
- Can you explain job success/failure in one sentence?
- Can one job fail without blocking the others?
If not, split further.
