Put quiet hours inside the routine itself

How this helps you

A late or delayed run skips itself instead of posting or pinging at a bad hour.

✦ Try it

Right before you post or send anything, check the current time. If it's after 00:30 or before 7:00, skip this run and do nothing.

What they did

@sisiliu517's routine re-checks the clock right before it posts. One run woke at 00:28 and skipped itself, because it would have landed past the 00:30 cutoff.

Who it's for: Anyone whose routines post, send or notify other people.

How to try it

Check your time zone in Settings, Bot, Timezone. Schedules use it.
Write the quiet-hours rule into the routine's instructions.
Ask it to re-check the time right before the final action, not only at the start, because a long run can drift past your cutoff.
Say which days count, too. 'Daily' includes weekends.

What to expect

A routine that skips itself late at night or at weekends and says so in its result.

Common mistakes

Checking the time only at the start of a long run.
Forgetting weekends. @ALL_Jonah's point: 'check daily' means Saturday at 7am too.
