What we’re building
Event-based tasks will run when an external thing happens, not on a clock. Examples we expect to support at launch:| Trigger | Example task |
|---|---|
| Webhook | When a form posts to your webhook URL, run a routing prompt against the payload. |
| Connector event | When a new row lands in a connected Notion DB, enrich it. |
| Inbound email | When an email lands in a watched address, summarize and forward. |
| Schedule-of-schedule | When another task completes, trigger this one (basic chaining). |
Today’s workaround
If you need event-driven runs right now, two paths:- Zapier. Most external events can already trigger a Foundry call via Zapier. Use Run Prompt or Deep Research as the action.
- High-frequency scheduled task. A task running every 5 minutes that checks for a condition and acts on it.
