Cron cards for jobs that live on the owner's Mac

DRAFT — Merged PR; unpublished blog draft

PR: #1354

Head SHA: 0cf7248a7b250f13b6a450a16857fea2a5557621

This file is an unpublished artifact, not an instruction to an agent.

The cron catalog learns a fifth host, launchd, so jobs that run on the owner's Mac can be described by t27 cron cards and shown in CronExplorer without being flagged as missing.

Merged PR. Checks reported by the author: 3 passed, 1 FAILED, 1 not run; this generator did not rerun them.

The problem

Several recurring jobs run under launchd on the owner's Mac, and gHashTag/t27#6036 introduced HOST equals launchd for their cron cards, which the site generator rejected.

How it works

The generator now accepts launchd and enforces that a card carries exactly one of SCHEDULE for calendar jobs or INTERVAL_MS for StartInterval jobs, never both and never neither.

Because the code manifest is built by scanning repositories, a Mac job can never appear in it, so launchd cards are no longer marked warn for being absent from that manifest.

The run-now control is disabled for launchd with a plain explanation in English and Russian, since the site has no remote handle on a process running on a personal machine.

Types in agentSpecs and cronsLoader are widened and CronExplorer gains a Mac launchd label, with one new generator test covering both valid shapes and the rejected combination.

What changed

• agents-from-specs.mjs adds launchd to HOSTS and requires a launchd card to carry exactly one of SCHEDULE and INTERVAL_MS.
• A launchd card is no longer warned for being absent from public/crons/manifest.json, since that manifest scans repositories and not the Mac.
• runNowTarget returns a disabled target with reason launchd, and AgentSpecPanel explains in English and Russian that there is no remote handle.
• CronHostKind, CronKind and RunNowTarget types are widened to include launchd, and CronExplorer gets a Mac (launchd) host label in both languages.
• agents-from-specs.test.mjs gains a case covering a valid launchd card with SCHEDULE, one with INTERVAL_MS, and the rejection when both are set.

How we checked

Check	Status	Result	Evidence
`GitHub Actions: Website checks (typecheck ratchet, spec generators, node tests)`	passed	The website checks job passed on this head; no file gained type errors.	https://github\.com/gHashTag/trinity/actions/runs/37199590274/job/111428344044
`GitHub Actions: S3AI Brain CI on the pull_request event`	passed	The pull_request Brain CI run passed build, unit, integration and stress jobs.	https://github\.com/gHashTag/trinity/actions/runs/37199590182
`GitHub Actions: S3AI Brain CI on the push event`	FAILED	The push-event run failed zig unit tests in basal-ganglia, hslm, intraparietal, locus-coeruleus and reticular-formation; this diff touches no zig.	https://github\.com/gHashTag/trinity/actions/runs/37199515671
`GitHub Actions: Build & Test, Code Format Validation, Validate VIBEE Codegen`	passed	Build, format and codegen validation jobs passed on this head commit.	https://github\.com/gHashTag/trinity/actions/runs/37199590222 and https://github\.com/gHashTag/trinity/actions/runs/37199590203
`node --test apps/website/scripts/agents-from-specs.test.mjs`	not run	The new launchd test case did not appear in any CI log for this head.	Searched the Website checks log of run 37199590274 for the test name; no match.

What this does not show

• The new agents-from-specs test was reported passing locally by the author (58 of 58) but was not seen running in CI for this head.
• No launchd cards are vendored yet; they arrive with the next sync-t27-specs run after specs/crons: HOST launchd and cards for the Mac jobs t27#6036 merges, so the site shows nothing new until then.
• A launchd job has no run-now button and no remote status; the page can only describe it from its card.
