Control cron across
your infrastructure.
Know exactly what runs, where, and why — without SSH, guesswork, or hidden failures.
Cron breaks silently. Jobs drift across servers. No one knows who owns what. CronCommander gives you a single source of truth for every cron job, every execution, and every change.
Stop guessing.
See everything.
CronCommander doesn't replace cron. It adds a control plane on top — so you always know what ran, what failed, and who changed it.
See every server running cron — instantly
No more discovering servers you forgot about. See every agent across your infrastructure, organized by workspace, with real-time health status.
- check_circle Live inventory across all servers
- check_circle Organized by workspace and environment
- check_circle Spot offline machines before they cause failures
Every cron job. One place. No SSH.
Stop grepping servers one by one. See every job, schedule, and command across your entire fleet in a single unified view.
Know if jobs succeed or fail — before users notice
See success rates, execution times, and recent history for every job. Catch failures early, not after the damage is done.
Full execution history. Always.
Every execution is recorded — what ran, when, and what happened. Filter by job, agent, or time range. Complete audit trail for compliance.
See what happened — without SSH
Click any execution to inspect stdout, stderr, and exit codes. Debugging cron should not require logging into servers.

Cron management for servers, agents, and crontabs
CronCommander is built for teams searching for a practical cron manager: a way to discover cron jobs across servers, keep crontabs in sync, and monitor every execution without replacing the cron daemon already installed on each machine.
Each server runs a lightweight cron agent that reports job inventory, liveness, schedules, stdout, stderr, and exit codes to the CronCommander control plane. You can manage crontab state from one place while the actual commands continue to execute locally on your infrastructure. Drift reporting and remediation remain roadmap work.
- Cron agent
- A small local service that reports server health, cron discovery, execution history, and desired-state sync.
- Crontab manager
- A central view for schedules, commands, ownership, failures, and changes across many servers.
Public launch readiness
Current as of September 2026. Early access remains open while the launch gates below are completed.
Implemented foundation

sync
HTTPS agent transport
Scoped credentials, randomized polling, durable acknowledgements, and local report spooling.
-
travel_explore
Cron discovery
Discover existing cron entries, review them, and import selected jobs.
-
rule
Desired-state sync
Manage cron definitions centrally and synchronize them to enrolled agents.
-
monitoring
Execution visibility
Execution history, bounded output capture, and persisted agent health.
Remaining public-launch gates
- verified_user
Production identity verification
Verify Auth0 login, callback, logout, session behavior, roles, and cross-account denial in the deployed console.
- payments
Production billing verification
The Paddle sandbox catalog and fail-closed quantity hooks exist; credentials, signed webhooks, checkout, portal, and live-mode evidence remain.
- security
Final security sign-off
Record production secret injection, private metrics access, installer evidence, and release-owner approval.
- monitor_heart
Operational readiness
Complete production alerts, backup and restore drills, and a verified rollback procedure.
"Security is a first-class concern. We prefer delaying features over shipping something unsafe."
Technical Specifications
laptop_windows Supported Systems
The CronCommander agent runs on Linux, FreeBSD, and macOS (amd64, arm64). The automatic service installer supports Linux; FreeBSD and macOS use the published checksummed binaries with manual service configuration.
shield Operational Design
- check_circle Local execution: Cron jobs run on your servers, so commands never leave your infrastructure.
- check_circle Small footprint: The agent is a lightweight, single Go binary designed to use minimal server resources.
- check_circle Open and inspectable: Review the agent source and documented protocol, or compile the agent yourself.
Your infrastructure runs on cron.
Take control of it.
No replacement. No lock-in. CronCommander is the control plane cron never had.
