The description explains that the scheduler shifts run times slightly:\n\n- Repeating tasks can fire up to 10% of their interval late, at most 15 minutes\n\n- One-time tasks set for :00 or :30 can fire up to 90 seconds early\n\n**Why**\n\nThese details tell Claude what to expect from the scheduler, which affects the times it chooses and what it tells you about when a task will run.\n\n- Area: Scheduled Tasks\n- Names: `CronCreate`\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 1\/5\n- Signal: 0\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
