Summary
Manus is broadening its always-on execution story beyond Cloud Computer by adding Scheduled Tasks 2.0, which keeps recurring work inside the same task context, reuses Project-level setup, and lets web apps built with Manus run scheduled actions of their own. Together, the features position Manus less as a one-shot task agent and more as a context-preserving runtime for ongoing automations.
What changed
Manus expanded its persistent execution model by adding Scheduled Tasks 2.0, including same-task continuation, Project-aware reuse, app-level schedules, and richer schedule views.
Why it matters
Persistent agents only become useful for operational work when they can revisit the right context instead of rerunning from scratch. Scheduled Tasks 2.0 strengthens Manus's runtime story by tying recurrence to the task, project, or app that owns the work, not just to a timer.
Evidence excerpt
Manus says Cloud Computer keeps bots, scripts, apps, and files running persistently, while Scheduled Tasks 2.0 can continue inside the same task context, reuse Project setup, add scheduled actions to web apps, and expose schedule history through side-panel and calendar views.
