Description

Scheduled jobs can be handled by a Guile-based cron replacement, giving users and administrators a compatible way to run commands at planned times. It is useful on systems or workflows that prefer Guile integration while keeping cron-like behavior.

This is scheduling infrastructure, so configured jobs may run commands automatically and repeatedly. Review job definitions carefully, especially when they modify files, run as privileged users, or affect network services.
