# memanto schedule enable

> Enable the nightly daily-summary, conflict-detection and expiry-sweep job.

# memanto schedule enable

Enable automatic daily summaries at a specific time.

```bash theme={null}
memanto schedule enable
```

**Options:**

* None

**Examples:**

Interactive setup:

```bash theme={null}
memanto schedule enable
```

This prompts:

```
What time should daily summaries run? (HH:MM in 24-hour format, UTC)
Example: 09:00 for 9 AM UTC
Enter time: 08:00
```

If your terminal is non-interactive, Memanto may use the existing configured schedule time instead of prompting. Run `memanto schedule status` to verify the final scheduled time.

**Output:**

```
✓ Daily summaries enabled
  Time:     08:00 UTC
  Next Run: 2025-03-31 08:00:00 UTC
  Agent:    customer-support
```

**What Happens:**
Every day at the specified time:

1. Daily summary is generated
2. Conflict detection runs
3. The [expiry policy sweep](/cli/policy/apply) runs, expiring anything the agent's policy matches
4. Results are saved locally
5. Summary is available via CLI/API

<Note>
  The expiry sweep is what makes "set a policy and forget it" work — a policy only
  takes effect when a sweep runs. An agent with no policy set is a no-op, so this
  step is safe whether or not you use expiry policies. See
  [Memory Lifecycle](/reference/memory-lifecycle).
</Note>

Purging is **not** part of the nightly job. Permanently deleting long-expired
memories is always an explicit act — see [`memanto policy purge`](/cli/policy/purge).
