Launchd Non-Apple Jobs

Overview

Show the current launchd job list filtered to non-Apple labels, and create user LaunchAgents (GUI domain) for one-time or recurring schedules.

Quick Start

List non-Apple jobs:

scripts/show_jobs.sh

Create a one-time job:

scripts/create_job.sh --label "com.example.myjob" --command "echo hello" --once "2026-02-05 13:30"

Create a recurring job:

scripts/create_job.sh --label "com.example.myjob" --command "echo hello" --daily "09:00"

Remove a job:

scripts/delete_job.sh --label "com.example.myjob"

Tasks

Show non-Apple jobs

Run scripts/show_jobs.sh.
The output keeps the header and only non-Apple labels.

Create a one-time job

Use --once "YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM".
The job schedules via StartCalendarInterval and self-removes after the first run.

Create a recurring job

Use one of: --daily, --weekly, --monthly, or --interval.
The job uses StartCalendarInterval (or StartInterval) and remains installed until removed.

Remove a job

Run scripts/delete_job.sh --label "<label>".
This unloads the job and moves the plist (and one-time wrapper, if present) to Trash.

Customize the filter (optional)

If the user wants to include additional Apple-like prefixes, update the regex in scripts/show_jobs.sh.
