Scheduled tasks
Scheduled tasks let you tell Dassi to do something every day at a specific time, on a specific site, on your behalf. Once you’ve confirmed a task, it runs whether or not the side panel is open.
Why use scheduled tasks
Section titled “Why use scheduled tasks”Scheduled tasks are for things you’d normally do manually at a predictable time every day:
- Wish LinkedIn connections a happy birthday every morning at 9:00
- Get a summary of your unread Gmail at 8:30
- Check your X home timeline and engage with posts each evening
Dassi handles the repetition. You just review the results.
Create a scheduled task
Section titled “Create a scheduled task”Open the Dassi side panel and describe the task you want to repeat. Include three things: a time, a site, and what to do.
Every morning at 9:00, open LinkedIn and wish a happy birthday to any connections celebrating today.Daily at 8:30, open Gmail and summarize my unread emails from today.Each evening at 18:00, open my X home timeline and like the top 3 posts.Dassi will prepare the task and show you a consent card before activating it.
Confirm the task
Section titled “Confirm the task”After you describe the task, a consent card appears in the side panel. It shows the target site, the time and timezone, and the exact instruction that will run.
Read it carefully. The card explains that Dassi will act on your account every day at that time, even when the panel is closed, as long as Chrome is open.
Click Enable daily task to activate it. Click Cancel to discard it without saving.
Manage your schedules
Section titled “Manage your schedules”Open the Dassi Options page (the gear icon in the toolbar) and go to the Schedules tab. You’ll see all your scheduled tasks listed with their site, time, and current status.
From the list you can:
- Enable — confirm a task you created but haven’t activated yet
- Pause — stop a task from running without deleting it
- Resume — restart a paused task
- Delete — permanently remove the task
The list refreshes automatically when you return to the tab, so changes you make from the side panel always show up here.
What happens when a task runs
Section titled “What happens when a task runs”Dassi opens the target site in a new tab and works through your instruction, the same way it handles any task you’d run manually. If you have the side panel open at that moment, you’ll see the activity feed update in real time.
Once the task finishes, Dassi sends a desktop notification.
If a task fails three times in a row, Dassi pauses it automatically and marks it as Error in the Schedules tab. Check the task description, fix whatever caused the failure (for example, being logged out of the site), then click Resume to restart it.
Limitations
Section titled “Limitations”- Chrome must be open. Scheduled tasks don’t run if Chrome isn’t running. If Chrome was closed when a task was due, Dassi runs it shortly after you reopen Chrome.
- Runs on your device. Tasks run in your browser using your logged-in sessions and cookies — Dassi isn’t hosted in the cloud. If you’re logged out of a site, the task will fail.
- Once per day. Each schedule fires once a day at the specified time. Per-minute or per-hour scheduling isn’t supported.
- Timezone required. Specify a timezone in your prompt (“9:00 Eastern”, “17:00 Europe/London”) so Dassi schedules the task correctly. If you don’t, Dassi infers it from your browser’s local timezone.
