Description

SpawnAgent is purely on-demand today — there's no scheduling or queueing primitive anywhere in the daemon or protocol.

Proposal: support two related but distinct capabilities — (a) cron-like scheduled spawns ("spawn this agent profile daily at 9am") and (b) a work queue ("queue N tasks against a profile, run at most M concurrently"). Worth scoping as to whether this lives in the daemon or as a client-side convenience that repeatedly calls SpawnAgent.

Research direction

Start by tracing the existing SpawnAgent entry point through the daemon and protocol. Compare daemon-side scheduling and queueing with a client-side implementation that repeatedly calls SpawnAgent, then define the scope and concurrency behavior for cron-like spawns and bounded work queues. Done means the project has an agreed design for both capabilities and their ownership.
