Description

What problem will this feature address?

Currently, when a schedule is running in Dokploy, there is no way to stop or interrupt it mid-execution.
This becomes problematic when a script or deployment triggered by a schedule is taking too long, behaving unexpectedly, or causing issues on the server. The only way to handle it is to manually intervene at the process level (e.g., SSH into the server), which is inefficient and potentially risky.

Describe the solution you'd like

Add the ability to stop or interrupt a running schedule. This would greatly improve usability, safety, and control over automated tasks.

Describe alternatives you've considered

The only current workaround is to manually access the server where the schedule is running and manually kill the process.

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points; start by locating the schedule execution flow and how its server-side process is tracked. Define the interruption behavior and its safety boundaries, then verify that a running schedule can be stopped without leaving deployment or script processes unmanaged.
