Tyler Yust 3f82daefd8 feat(cron): enhance delivery modes and job configuration
- Updated isolated cron jobs to support new delivery modes: `announce` and `none`, improving output management.
- Refactored job configuration to remove legacy fields and streamline delivery settings.
- Enhanced the `CronJobEditor` UI to reflect changes in delivery options, including a new segmented control for delivery mode selection.
- Updated documentation to clarify the new delivery configurations and their implications for job execution.
- Improved tests to validate the new delivery behavior and ensure backward compatibility with legacy settings.

This update provides users with greater flexibility in managing how isolated jobs deliver their outputs, enhancing overall usability and clarity in job configurations.

description: `Manage Gateway cron jobs (status/list/add/update/remove/run/runs) and send wake events.
ACTIONS:
- status: Check cron scheduler status
- list: List jobs (use includeDisabled:true to include disabled)
- add: Create job (requires job object, see schema below)
- update: Modify job (requires jobId + patch object)
- remove: Delete job (requires jobId)
- run: Trigger job immediately (requires jobId)
- runs: Get job run history (requires jobId)
- wake: Send wake event (requires text, optional mode)
JOB SCHEMA (for add action):
{
"name": "string (optional)",
"schedule": { ... }, // Required: when to run
"payload": { ... }, // Required: what to execute
"delivery": { ... }, // Optional: announce summary (isolated only)
"sessionTarget": "main" | "isolated", // Required
"enabled": true | false // Optional, default true
}
SCHEDULE TYPES (schedule.kind):
- "at": One-shot at absolute time
{ "kind": "at", "at": "<ISO-8601 timestamp>" }
- "every": Recurring interval
{ "kind": "every", "everyMs": <interval-ms>, "anchorMs": <optional-start-ms> }
- "cron": Cron expression
{ "kind": "cron", "expr": "<cron-expression>", "tz": "<optional-timezone>" }
ISO timestamps without an explicit timezone are treated as UTC.
PAYLOAD TYPES (payload.kind):
- "systemEvent": Injects text as system event into session
{ "kind": "systemEvent", "text": "<message>" }
- "agentTurn": Runs agent with message (isolated sessions only)
{ "kind": "agentTurn", "message": "<prompt>", "model": "<optional>", "thinking": "<optional>", "timeoutSeconds": <optional> }
DELIVERY (isolated-only, top-level):
{ "mode": "none|announce", "channel": "<optional>", "to": "<optional>", "bestEffort": <optional-bool> }
- Default for isolated agentTurn jobs (when delivery omitted): "announce"
- If the task needs to send to a specific chat/recipient, set delivery.channel/to here; do not call messaging tools inside the run.
CRITICAL CONSTRAINTS:
- sessionTarget="main" REQUIRES payload.kind="systemEvent"
- sessionTarget="isolated" REQUIRES payload.kind="agentTurn"
Default: prefer isolated agentTurn jobs unless the user explicitly wants a main-session system event.
WAKE MODES (for wake action):
- "next-heartbeat" (default): Wake on next heartbeat
- "now": Wake immediately
Use jobId as the canonical identifier; id is accepted for compatibility. Use contextMessages (0-10) to add previous messages as context to the job text.`,
