A designated scheduled item is cancelled outright: it will not fire again.
The registry's own words: Cancel a designated scheduled item outright: it will not fire again. Cancellation is confirmed in this reply; if the designation is ambiguous, ask rather than cancel the wrong item.
Fire it — usage examples
“
sch:stopthe price watch.”→ the watch is cancelled, and the confirmation states what was cancelled so you can verify it was the item you meant.
Quote a recurring item's confirmation and reply
sch:stop→ that item, and only that item, is cancelled.
Said aloud: “Lingo, schedule stop — the price watch.”
→ the watch is cancelled, and the confirmation states exactly what was cancelled.
Spoken. Inside a marked span opened by the wake word “Lingo”, the spoken form is “schedule stop”. Dictated directives fire deliberately, never by accident.
What the agent actually does
The entry is removed from active scheduling in the store. Cancelling is not pausing: a cancelled item does not resume; recreating it is a new item under a new token. A group your prose designates (“stop all of those”) cancels exactly the named group, listed in the confirmation.
The baseline procedure, its edge cases, and this directive's full guide live in the implementation guide: implementation/IMPLEMENTATION.md#cmd-sch-stop ↗.
When the host can't
No scheduling capability on this host: there are no scheduled items to cancel; say so plainly. If no item matches the designation, change nothing and say so.
Conformance — “done when”
The designated item is cancelled and the cancellation confirmed — or the no-match / ambiguity is reported with nothing cancelled.
Persistence class: content-write. Execution report in the reply: required. A user can test any of this by hand — fire the directive, then check the result against the store, the schedule, or the reply itself.
