People like that it automates recurring prompts and reduces manual work through a simple UI. The common caveats are that it is limited to a few cloud tasks and falls short of cron jobs.

“it's incredibly convenient to have a UI where:”
“a land grab to run workflows locked into their cloud not just models”
“with Claude, it's that prompt”
“It's inferior to a Cron job. If my repos happen to be self hosted with Forgejo or codeberg, then it won't even work.”
“playing with it give me a nice idea on how I can reduce my manual work”
“I'm afraid I'm gonna have the same troubles if I want to use this”
“Looks like I'm limited to only 3 cloud scheduled tasks. And I'm on the Max 20x plan, too”
“But otherwise, this looks really cool”
