Clockwork has launched an early macOS app for scheduling coding agents as if they were calendar events.
Users can assign a repository, time window and budget to jobs run by tools such as Claude Code, Codex CLI, OpenCode or Hermes. Tasks can recur or be chained, and each run gets its own git worktree and branch.
The app adds controls around unattended execution: writes outside the worktree are blocked, sensitive credential locations are restricted, risky actions can pause for approval and a supervisor enforces cost, turn and wall-clock limits independently of the model.
Clockwork is local-first and currently free for personal use, but the build is still early. The current macOS release is unsigned and not notarized, and scheduled work only runs while the Mac is awake.
