    Not sure if I understand what are you asking, but you can do maintenance directly from the terminal. I have not right now access to OS X, but if I remember correctly, typing something like



    sudo sh /etc/daily



    will do the job (then replace daily with weekly, monthly). Of course you have to provide your administrator password.

    Macaroni, Cocktail, CronniX, MacJanitor all use the "cron" scheduling part of the subsystem otherwise avilable via the command line (i.e., Terminal) to schedule and perform daily, weekly and monthly maintenence. Just check www.versiontracker.com or www.macupdate.com for them and some similar utilities.
