Navin automations: delegate the maintenance nobody wants
April 22, 2026 · 1 min read · Navin team
Schedule agents, cron and heartbeats in Navin for updates, summaries and overnight checks - the local gateway delivers without waking you.
Boring tasks eat the sprint: dependency bumps, nightly summaries, broken-link checks. Navin turns them into local automations.
Three shapes
- Scheduled - time, interval or cron (cron tool in the target session).
- Local trigger -
navin triggerfrom CI, webhook or script. - Heartbeat - quiet checks via
HEARTBEAT.md, speaking only when useful.
Why local changes the game
The gateway runs on your machine: repo access, machine secrets and tools without exposing code. Ideal for internal maintenance.
Concrete examples
- Overnight dependency review + PR if tests pass.
- Weekly summary of open issues in the team channel.
- Alert when a staging endpoint returns 5xx.
Getting started
Install Navin, keep the gateway running, create the automation in the session where the result should land. History and workspace stay coherent.
