GitHub Actions

Overview

Oh My Workers uses GitHub Actions for automated daily runs. This is more reliable than local cron since it doesn't require your machine to be awake.

Timezone Notes

GitHub Actions cron uses UTC. Conversions for Sydney:

Sydney Time	UTC (AEST, Apr-Oct)	UTC (AEDT, Oct-Apr)
8:00 AM	10:00 PM (previous day)	9:00 PM (previous day)
4:30 PM	6:30 AM	5:30 AM
5:00 PM	7:00 AM	6:00 AM

The cron schedules use AEST (UTC+10). During daylight saving (AEDT), jobs will fire 1 hour later in Sydney time.
