fix(worker): continuous loop + cron as watchdog, not scheduler
Browse filesThe worker is supposed to run back-to-back evals as a continuous daemon,
not wait for a cron trigger. My earlier install had it backwards — the
:07 cron ran one pass then exited, leaving the machine idle between
cron ticks. Inverting:
lem-eval.sh loop now runs 'once' in a tight loop with a 10s
breather between passes (enough to not thrash
logs / cron but short enough to stay busy).
Each 'once' iterates all runnable targets and
commit/pushes per target via run_target.
cron/submit.cron now a watchdog, not a scheduler. Runs at :07
hourly and resurrects the loop if it died.
No-op if the loop is still running.
cron/maintain.cron unchanged — :37 hourly git pull for config.
The 1h watchdog cadence means the worker can be dead for up to 1h
before being restarted. For the current MVP that's acceptable; if we
ever need tighter recovery we can switch to systemd or a shorter cron.
