καιρός · the opportune moment

Epiphron knows what. Kairos knows when.

Business calendars, scheduled work, gated flows and the plan for a whole business day, in one place. Every run lands on a day the market is open, and every decision leaves a record.

Calendar XNYS_TRADE. The dashed box is where the task was programmed; the blue chip is where it will actually run.

Six letters, six capabilities

Everything that decides when work happens

K

Kalendars

Business calendars, filled from Copp Clark or typed in, decide which days each market is open.

A

Actions

One definition of work, whether a program, a data request or a flow, run by the executor registered for its kind.

I

Instances

Every run leaves a record: each scheduled firing and each routine's business day, with outcome and timing.

R

Routines

The plan for a whole business day: steps, dependencies, waits, sign-offs and deadlines, journaled as they happen.

O

Orchestrations

Flows of actions in steps, each step gated on the outcomes of the one before it.

S

Schedules

The scheduler fires actions on time and moves them around holidays using the calendars.

Kalendars

Which days is each market open?

Calendars come from a provider such as Copp Clark or are typed in by hand. Combine several into one: closed when any member is closed, when all are, or when a quorum is.

  • Overrides stayA holiday you add or reopen by hand survives every refresh from the provider.
  • CompositesGLOBAL_PRICING is closed when New York or London is; G3_QUORUM closes when two of three markets do.
  • HorizonYou are warned once, ahead of time, when a calendar is about to run out of known holidays.
  • Time zonesEach calendar keeps its own zone, shown the way Windows shows it, with the current local time beside it.
Month inspector for June 2027: business days, weekends and Juneteenth on Friday 18 marked in colour, with a probe box below.

The month inspector explains every day. Probe a date and it tells you the previous, next and nth business day.

Schedules

Run on the right business day

Attach a calendar to any trigger and choose what a closed day means. The preview shows the next executions before you save, with every move explained.

  • SkipClosed day, no run.
  • Roll forwardRun on the next open day instead.
  • Roll backRun on the open day before.
  • Nth business dayFirst, fifth, last or second-to-last business day of the month, counted on the calendar you choose.
Trigger dialog: monthly at 20:00 on calendar GLOBAL_PRICING, last business day, with a preview of upcoming executions.

Month-end close: 20:00 on the last business day, wherever that falls.

Instances

Every run leaves a record

Each task shows its run count, success rate, average duration and trend, a bar chart of recent durations, and a 24-hour strip of when it actually starts.

  • Typical windowStart and finish times averaged around the clock, so a run near midnight averages to midnight.
  • On timeHow often a run started within seconds of its plan, and how late the late ones were.
  • OutcomesSucceededPartialFailedSkippedCancelled
Scheduler screen with Disk report selected: tiles for runs, success, duration, trend, typical window and punctuality.

131 runs, 100% success, 461 ms on average, steady trend.

Orchestrations

Flows of work, gated step by step

Build a flow from steps of actions that run side by side. Each step continues only when the outcomes before it meet its gate. Simulate the flow first, then run it for real.

  • RetriesOffered only where an action is safe to repeat.
  • CancelStop between steps; the rest is skipped and the record says so.
  • NestingA flow can run inside another flow, a schedule or a routine. Cycles are refused.
Orchestration designer: NIGHTLY-PRICING with step cards, a gate between steps, and recent runs.

NIGHTLY-PRICING: load, massage, request, refine, archive.

Routines

The plan for a whole business day

The day board shows every step of the day with its state, its place on the timeline and a projected finish. Anything that needs a person rises to the top.

  • WaitsHold a step until a condition is met, such as vendor files landing, with a deadline.
  • Sign-offsApprovals by role, with SLAs that flag a breach the moment it happens.
  • RestartsThe journal is written first, so a restarted server picks up the day without running anything twice.
  • One ownerA lease with a fencing token makes sure one server is in charge.
Routine day board with a timed-out wait, two SLA breaches and an approval awaiting the OPS role.

HARNESS-DAY: a timed-out wait, two SLA breaches and an approval waiting on OPS.

Built-in safety nets

It says “no” in plain words

When something can't be done safely, Kairos explains why instead of guessing.

Refusal over damage

A calendar still used by a composite can't be deleted.

XNYS_TRADE is a member of GLOBAL_PRICING.

No silent holidays

A slot the calendar can't place is dropped and traced, never fired on a closed day.

every programmed day closed: nothing to run

Every command journaled

Hold, skip, force complete and approve are written down with the user and the reason.

a refusal comes back as a sentence

Audited field by field

Every change records who made it and which fields it touched.
