 **CronOps** is a lightweight, cron-based file management and system task scheduler for containerized environments. It automates copying, moving, archiving, and cleaning up files across mounted volumes — keeping your storage tidy, enabling seamless file exchange between containerized services, and triggering regular tasks in your development, integration or production environments.
