Scheduling & Cron

lunchy-go (launchctl wrapper)

Friendly wrapper around macOS `launchctl`:

# List all services (pattern match)
lunchy-go ls
lunchy-go ls redis

# Start a service
lunchy-go start com.example.service
lunchy-go start redis    # pattern match

# Stop a service
lunchy-go stop redis

# Restart a service
lunchy-go restart redis

# Show service status
lunchy-go status redis

crontab (built-in)

Standard Unix cron scheduler:

# List current cron jobs
crontab -l

# Edit cron jobs (opens editor)
crontab -e

# Cron syntax: MIN HOUR DOM MON DOW command
# Every day at 9am:
# 0 9 * * * /path/to/script.sh
# Every 5 minutes:
# */5 * * * * /path/to/script.sh
# Weekdays at 8:30am:
