Description

Currently the scripts are run with the next cron job.
This is not usable for some cases, e.g. I try to lock a file with an other app if it's opened or updated.
I don't want to trigger cron any 10 secounds because there are other jobs like generating previews and file scan etc.
Other APP like https://github.com/nextcloud/files_accesscontrol are grip immediatly.
How can I configure this direct behavior with workflow_script?

Research direction

No file, test, or entry point is named. Start by tracing how workflow_script handles triggers and defers scripts to cron, then compare the requested immediate behavior with the linked files_accesscontrol app; done means scripts can run immediately after the relevant trigger without increasing the cron frequency.
