Phantombuster 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 Phantombuster CLI uses the same integration registry as the TUI, Lua runtime, and MCP gateway, but returns predictable command output for automation.

Automation Notes
- Use
--jsonfor machine-readable output. - Keep credentials out of argv by using environment variables or stored KosmoKrator configuration.
- Configure read/write policy before unattended runs; use
--forceonly for trusted automation. - Use the MCP gateway instead when the agent needs dynamic tool discovery inside a conversation.
