Nox-Lumen Mfgcron / event_trigger
In one sentence
Two ways for AI to start itself:
| Tool | Trigger | Examples |
|---|---|---|
cron_job | Cron expressions | Weekly code-review digest Monday 9:00; rebuild KB index nightly 2:00 |
event_trigger | Events (webhook / messages) | GitLab MR opened → review; inbound email classified; summarize new Feishu group chat |
Relationship to channels
Event sources usually flow through platform channels—Feishu, WeCom, SCM webhook, email, custom HTTP.
event_trigger turns “something happened” into “start SKILL X with context Y.”
Industry usage
- Patents: weekly digest of unanswered office actions
- Automotive: MR opened → run code review → post results back
- Manufacturing: work-order webhook → triage + dispatch
