Run scheduled research automations with self-hosted Khoj
Use Khoj to connect private knowledge and web sources, create a custom agent, and schedule recurring research or notification workflows.

Use Khoj when the task is a recurring personal or team research workflow that should run from a self-hosted assistant instead of an ad hoc chat. The operator connects local or online knowledge sources, configures model access, creates a custom agent with the right knowledge and tools, schedules the research or notification cadence, and reviews delivered summaries or inbox updates. This workflow is strongest for repeated monitoring, personal newsletters, research digests, and knowledge-backed alerts where the same sources and instructions should be reused on a schedule. Keep the boundary to scheduled research, alerts, custom-agent setup, and knowledge-backed agent tasks; do not present Khoj as a general personal AI assistant listing. The workflow should document the model provider, connected sources, schedule, delivery channel, and review step so outputs stay auditable before they drive downstream action.
What this skill actually does
Inputs and prerequisites: Self-hosted Khoj or Khoj account, configured LLM provider or local model, connected documents or online sources, email or notification setup for scheduled delivery.
Setup notes: Follow the Khoj self-hosting setup docs, configure model credentials or a local model, connect the knowledge sources needed for the workflow, then create a custom agent and schedule recurring research or notification tasks.
Source and verification boundary: use https://docs.khoj.dev/get-started/setup as the canonical reference before running the workflow; keep commands, API calls, CLI usage, and generated outputs reviewable against that upstream source.
Framework fit: publish this as a Multi-Framework workflow only when the operator can invoke the documented toolchain directly, rather than treating the upstream project as a generic product listing.
