Apify CLI for Cron Jobs

Schedule repeatable integration workflows from cron while keeping credentials in KosmoKrator config.

Use the headless CLI from cron when an operation should run without an interactive agent session. The Apify CLI uses the same integration registry as the TUI, Lua runtime, and MCP gateway, but returns predictable command output for automation.

Command Shape

# Apify CLI for Cron Jobs
kosmokrator integrations:configure apify --set api_token="$APIFY_API_TOKEN" --enable --read allow --write ask --json
kosmo integrations:call apify.apify_run_actor '{"actorId":"example_actorId","input":"example_input","build":"example_build","waitForFinish":1,"timeout":1,"memory":1}' --json

kosmo integrations:docs apify.apify_run_actor --json
kosmo integrations:schema apify.apify_run_actor --json
kosmo integrations:search "Apify" --json
