Scheduled Reports

Deliver a saved report on a schedule instead of making people rebuild it weekly.

involved Analytics

What it adds

Recurring rendering and delivery of a saved analytics report to a chosen set of recipients.

What your agent is told to do

5
  1. 1

    Let a user attach a schedule to a saved report: frequency, send time, and the time zone the schedule runs in.

  2. 2

    Render each send with the filters, date range, and time zone the report author selected — not the recipient's or the server's.

  3. 3

    Re-check every recipient's access to the report AT SEND TIME. Permission granted three months ago is not permission today.

  4. 4

    Record each send as a run with a status, so a failure is visible rather than a report that quietly stopped arriving.

  5. 5

    Do NOT build batching cadence, per-user notification preferences, or urgent-versus-digestible classification here. Those are owned by Notification Digests; route delivery through it.

Edge cases it handles

6
  • A recipient who lost access must be dropped from that send and the owner told — not sent a report they can no longer open.
  • A report with no rows should be skipped or labelled as empty by an explicit setting. Silently sending a blank table trains people to ignore it.
  • Two schedules on the same report at the same time must not produce two sends. Deduplicate on report, window, and recipient.
  • Daylight saving shifts the wall-clock send time. Pick whether the schedule follows local time or fixed UTC and hold to it.
  • A failed render must retry with a bounded backoff, then stop and alert the owner. Infinite retries send twelve copies at 3am.
  • A worker restart mid-run must not resend an already-delivered report — mark delivery, not just attempt.

Definition of done

8
  • A saved report can be scheduled with a frequency, send time, and time zone.
  • Each send reproduces the author's filters, range, and time zone exactly.
  • Recipient access is re-evaluated at send time and revoked recipients are excluded.
  • Empty reports follow an explicit skip-or-send setting.
  • Duplicate schedules and worker retries never produce a duplicate delivery.
  • Send history with success and failure status is visible to the report owner.
  • The feature matches the existing design system.
  • No existing functionality is broken.

    It inspects, then implements

    Your agent reads your existing app first, then adds the feature to fit it.

Works with your stack

These instructions are written to adapt. They tell the agent to detect your framework, match your existing design system, and reuse what you already have — rather than assuming a particular stack.
