Gateway mode runs CLIver as a long-running daemon with cron scheduling, a web admin portal, and platform adapters for messaging services.

Starting the Gateway

# Install gateway dependencies
pip install cliver[gateway]

# Start the daemon
cliver gateway start

# Check status
cliver gateway status

# Stop
cliver gateway stop

Cron Scheduling

The gateway’s cron scheduler runs tasks on a schedule. Tasks are defined with a schedule field and executed by their own AgentCore instance.

# Create a scheduled task
cliver task create daily-summary \
  --prompt "Summarize today's activity from the logs" \
  --schedule "0 9 * * *"

# List tasks
cliver task list

# Run a task immediately
cliver task run daily-summary

Platform Adapters

Gateway exposes AgentCore through messaging platforms. Each adapter handles message routing, permission prompts, and session management for its platform.

Currently tested: Slack.
