@.planning/PROJECT.md @.planning/ROADMAP.md @.planning/phases/10-background-scheduler/10-RESEARCH.md @crates/memory-service/src/server.rs @Cargo.toml Task 1: Create memory-scheduler crate structure crates/memory-scheduler/Cargo.toml crates/memory-scheduler/src/lib.rs crates/memory-scheduler/src/error.rs Cargo.toml Create the new memory-scheduler crate:

Create crates/memory-scheduler/Cargo.toml:
- Package name: memory-scheduler
- Inherit workspace.package fields (version, edition, license, repository)
- Dependencies:
  - tokio-cron-scheduler = "0.15"
  - chrono-tz = "0.10"
  - tokio-util = { version = "0.7", features = ["rt"] }
  - tokio = { workspace = true }
  - chrono = { workspace = true }
  - tracing = { workspace = true }
  - thiserror = { workspace = true }
  - serde = { workspace = true }
- Dev dependencies:
  - tokio = { workspace = true, features = ["test-util"] }
Create crates/memory-scheduler/src/lib.rs:
- Module exports for scheduler, config, error
- Doc comment explaining crate purpose (SCHED-01 through SCHED-05)
Create crates/memory-scheduler/src/error.rs:
- Define SchedulerError enum with variants:
  - Scheduler(String) - tokio-cron-scheduler errors
  - InvalidCron(String) - cron expression validation
  - InvalidTimezone(String) - timezone parsing errors
  - JobNotFound(String)
  - AlreadyRunning
  - NotRunning
- Implement From for SchedulerError
Update workspace Cargo.toml:
- Add "crates/memory-scheduler" to workspace members
- Add memory-scheduler = { path = "crates/memory-scheduler" } to workspace.dependencies

cd /Users/richardhightower/clients/spillwave/src/agent-memory && cargo check -p memory-scheduler Crate compiles, error types defined, workspace includes memory-scheduler Task 2: Implement SchedulerConfig and SchedulerService crates/memory-scheduler/src/config.rs crates/memory-scheduler/src/scheduler.rs crates/memory-scheduler/src/lib.rs Implement core scheduler types:

Create crates/memory-scheduler/src/config.rs:
- SchedulerConfig struct with:
  - default_timezone: String (default "UTC", parsed to chrono_tz::Tz)
  - shutdown_timeout_secs: u64 (default 30)
- impl Default for SchedulerConfig
- Method parse_timezone() -> Result<Tz, SchedulerError>
- Serde derive for loading from config
Create crates/memory-scheduler/src/scheduler.rs:
- Import tokio_cron_scheduler::{Job, JobScheduler, JobSchedulerError}
- Import tokio_util::sync::CancellationToken
- SchedulerService struct with:
  - scheduler: JobScheduler
  - config: SchedulerConfig
  - shutdown_token: CancellationToken
  - is_running: AtomicBool
- impl SchedulerService:
  - pub async fn new(config: SchedulerConfig) -> Result<Self, SchedulerError>
    - Create JobScheduler with in-memory storage
    - Initialize shutdown_token
    - Set is_running = false
  - pub async fn start(&self) -> Result<(), SchedulerError>
    - Check not already running
    - Call scheduler.start().await
    - Set is_running = true
    - Log "Scheduler started"
  - pub async fn shutdown(&self) -> Result<(), SchedulerError>
    - Signal shutdown via token
    - Wait for shutdown_timeout
    - Call scheduler.shutdown().await
    - Set is_running = false
    - Log "Scheduler shutdown complete"
  - pub fn shutdown_token(&self) -> CancellationToken
    - Return clone of shutdown token for job cancellation
  - pub fn is_running(&self) -> bool
  - pub async fn add_job(&self, job: Job) -> Result<uuid::Uuid, SchedulerError>
    - Wrap scheduler.add(job).await
    - Return job UUID
Update lib.rs to export SchedulerConfig and SchedulerService

Note: Use #[tokio::test(flavor = "multi_thread")] for any tests per research pitfall.

cd /Users/richardhightower/clients/spillwave/src/agent-memory && cargo test -p memory-scheduler SchedulerService starts, accepts jobs, shuts down gracefully. All tests pass. Task 3: Add timezone-aware job creation helper crates/memory-scheduler/src/scheduler.rs crates/memory-scheduler/src/lib.rs Add helper for creating timezone-aware jobs:

In scheduler.rs, add method to SchedulerService:
- pub async fn add_cron_job<F, Fut>( &self, name: &str, cron_expr: &str, timezone: Option<&str>, job_fn: F, ) -> Result<uuid::Uuid, SchedulerError> where F: Fn() -> Fut + Clone + Send + Sync + 'static, Fut: std::future::Future<Output = ()> + Send,
  
  Implementation:
  - Parse timezone or use config.default_timezone
  - Validate cron expression by attempting to create job
  - Use Job::new_async_tz for timezone-aware scheduling
  - Clone shutdown_token into job closure for cancellation support
  - Wrap job_fn to log start/end with tracing
  - Add job to scheduler
  - Return job UUID
Add validate_cron_expression function (public):
- fn validate_cron_expression(expr: &str) -> Result<(), SchedulerError>
- Uses croner (via tokio-cron-scheduler) to validate
- Returns InvalidCron error with descriptive message
Add unit tests:
- test_add_cron_job_valid_expression
- test_add_cron_job_invalid_expression
- test_timezone_parsing (America/New_York, UTC, invalid)

Export validate_cron_expression from lib.rs

cd /Users/richardhightower/clients/spillwave/src/agent-memory && cargo test -p memory-scheduler -- --nocapture Timezone-aware job creation works. Cron validation catches invalid expressions. Tests pass. ```bash # Crate compiles cd /Users/richardhightower/clients/spillwave/src/agent-memory cargo build -p memory-scheduler

All tests pass

cargo test -p memory-scheduler

Scheduler lifecycle works (verified by tests)

cargo test -p memory-scheduler test_scheduler

Clippy clean

cargo clippy -p memory-scheduler -- -D warnings

# Phase 10 Plan 01: Scheduler Infrastructure Summary

**memory-scheduler crate with tokio-cron-scheduler wrapper, timezone-aware job creation, and graceful shutdown via CancellationToken**

## Performance

- **Duration:** 8 min
- **Started:** 2026-02-01T01:28:57Z
- **Completed:** 2026-02-01T01:37:00Z
- **Tasks:** 3
- **Files modified:** 6

## Accomplishments
- Created memory-scheduler crate with workspace integration
- Implemented SchedulerService wrapper around tokio-cron-scheduler's JobScheduler
- Added timezone-aware job creation with chrono-tz support
- Established graceful shutdown pattern using CancellationToken
- Comprehensive cron expression validation with helpful error messages

## Task Commits

Each task was committed atomically:

1. **Task 1: Create memory-scheduler crate structure** - `a1c380d` (feat)
2. **Task 2: Implement SchedulerConfig and SchedulerService** - `cc4b6bc` (feat)
3. **Task 3: Add timezone-aware job creation helper** - `e9ec561` (feat)

## Files Created/Modified
- `crates/memory-scheduler/Cargo.toml` - Crate dependencies and workspace integration
- `crates/memory-scheduler/src/lib.rs` - Module exports and crate documentation
- `crates/memory-scheduler/src/scheduler.rs` - SchedulerService wrapper with add_cron_job
- `crates/memory-scheduler/src/config.rs` - SchedulerConfig with timezone and shutdown settings
- `crates/memory-scheduler/src/error.rs` - SchedulerError enum with all error variants
- `Cargo.toml` - Added memory-scheduler to workspace members and dependencies

## Decisions Made
- Used `&mut self` for shutdown() because tokio-cron-scheduler's JobScheduler::shutdown() requires mutable reference
- Validate timezone configuration in SchedulerService::new() for fail-fast behavior
- Cap shutdown wait time at 5 seconds in tests to avoid slow test runs
- Job closures receive CancellationToken for checking shutdown signal during long-running jobs
- Added serde_json to dev-dependencies for config serialization tests

## Deviations from Plan
None - plan executed exactly as written.

## Issues Encountered
- tokio-cron-scheduler's shutdown() requires `&mut self`, not `&self` - resolved by changing shutdown method signature

## Next Phase Readiness
- Scheduler infrastructure complete and ready for job registry (Plan 02)
- SchedulerService can add timezone-aware cron jobs with cancellation support
- All 17 tests pass with multi_thread flavor as required by tokio-cron-scheduler

Update lib.rs to add registry module and exports

cd /Users/richardhightower/clients/spillwave/src/agent-memory && cargo test -p memory-scheduler registry JobRegistry tracks job status with thread-safe access. All registry tests pass. Task 2: Implement OverlapPolicy and jitter utilities crates/memory-scheduler/src/overlap.rs crates/memory-scheduler/src/jitter.rs crates/memory-scheduler/src/lib.rs Implement overlap policy and jitter:

Create crates/memory-scheduler/src/overlap.rs:

use std::sync::atomic::{AtomicBool, Ordering};
use std::sync::Arc;
use serde::{Deserialize, Serialize};

/// Policy for handling overlapping job executions
#[derive(Debug, Clone, Copy, PartialEq, Eq, Serialize, Deserialize, Default)]

            }
        }
    }

    pub fn is_running(&self) -> bool {

    }
}

/// RAII guard that releases the running flag when dropped
pub struct RunGuard {

}

impl Drop for RunGuard {
    fn drop(&mut self) {
        self.flag.store(false, Ordering::SeqCst);
    }
}

Create crates/memory-scheduler/src/jitter.rs:

use rand::Rng;
use std::time::Duration;
use serde::{Deserialize, Serialize};

/// Configuration for job execution jitter
#[derive(Debug, Clone, Serialize, Deserialize)]
pub struct JitterConfig {
    /// Maximum jitter in seconds (0 = no jitter)
    pub max_jitter_secs: u64,
}

impl Default for JitterConfig {
    fn default() -> Self {
        Self { max_jitter_secs: 0 }
    }
}

impl JitterConfig {

    }

            return Duration::ZERO;
        }
        let jitter_ms = rand::thread_rng().gen_range(0..self.max_jitter_secs * 1000);
        Duration::from_millis(jitter_ms)
    }
}

/// Execute a future with jitter delay
pub async fn with_jitter<F, T>(max_jitter_secs: u64, job_fn: F) -> T
where
    F: std::future::Future<Output = T>,
{
    if max_jitter_secs > 0 {
        let config = JitterConfig::new(max_jitter_secs);
        let jitter = config.generate_jitter();
        if !jitter.is_zero() {
            tracing::debug!(jitter_ms = jitter.as_millis(), "Applying jitter delay");
            tokio::time::sleep(jitter).await;
        }
    }
    job_fn.await
}

Update lib.rs to add overlap and jitter modules with exports
Add tests:
- test_overlap_skip_prevents_concurrent
- test_overlap_concurrent_allows_multiple
- test_jitter_within_bounds
- test_jitter_zero_is_immediate

cd /Users/richardhightower/clients/spillwave/src/agent-memory && cargo test -p memory-scheduler -- overlap jitter OverlapPolicy::Skip prevents concurrent runs. Jitter adds bounded random delay. Tests pass. Task 3: Integrate registry with SchedulerService crates/memory-scheduler/src/scheduler.rs crates/memory-scheduler/src/lib.rs Wire JobRegistry into SchedulerService:

Update SchedulerService struct:
- Add registry: Arc field
- Initialize in new()
Add registry access method:
- pub fn registry(&self) -> Arc

Create enhanced job registration method:

pub async fn register_job<F, Fut>(
    &self,
    name: &str,
    cron_expr: &str,
    timezone: Option<&str>,
    overlap_policy: OverlapPolicy,
    jitter: JitterConfig,
    job_fn: F,
) -> Result<uuid::Uuid, SchedulerError>
where
    F: Fn() -> Fut + Clone + Send + Sync + 'static,
    Fut: std::future::Future<Output = Result<(), String>> + Send,

Implementation:

Register job in registry with name and cron_expr
Create OverlapGuard with policy
Parse timezone or use default
Create Job::new_async_tz with closure that:
- Tries to acquire overlap guard (skip if fails)
- Records start in registry
- Applies jitter delay
- Executes job_fn
- Records complete with result and duration
Add job to scheduler
Return UUID

Add pause/resume methods:
- pub async fn pause_job(&self, job_name: &str) -> Result<(), SchedulerError>
  - Set paused in registry
  - Log pause
- pub async fn resume_job(&self, job_name: &str) -> Result<(), SchedulerError>
  - Clear paused in registry
  - Log resume
Note: Pause/resume affects registry tracking but actual job pausing requires job_fn to check registry.is_paused() - document this pattern.
Add integration test that:
- Registers a job with Skip overlap
- Verifies job appears in registry
- Triggers job (via short cron like "* * * * * *")
- Verifies status updates after execution

Use #[tokio::test(flavor = "multi_thread")] for all tests.

cd /Users/richardhightower/clients/spillwave/src/agent-memory && cargo test -p memory-scheduler SchedulerService integrates with JobRegistry. Jobs track status correctly. All tests pass. ```bash cd /Users/richardhightower/clients/spillwave/src/agent-memory

All tests pass

cargo test -p memory-scheduler

Registry operations are thread-safe

cargo test -p memory-scheduler registry

Overlap policy works

cargo test -p memory-scheduler overlap

Jitter is bounded

cargo test -p memory-scheduler jitter

# Phase 10 Plan 02: Job Registry and Lifecycle Summary

**JobRegistry for status tracking with OverlapPolicy (Skip/Concurrent) and JitterConfig for random delays, integrated into SchedulerService.register_job()**

## Performance

- **Duration:** 10 min
- **Started:** 2026-01-31
- **Completed:** 2026-01-31
- **Tasks:** 3
- **Files created:** 3
- **Files modified:** 3
- **Total tests:** 54

## Accomplishments
- Implemented JobRegistry with thread-safe RwLock<HashMap> storage
- Created JobStatus struct tracking last_run, next_run, duration, run_count, error_count
- Added JobResult enum: Success, Failed, Skipped for execution outcomes
- Implemented OverlapPolicy with Skip (default) and Concurrent modes
- Created OverlapGuard with atomic lock-free running state
- Added RunGuard RAII type for automatic release on drop
- Implemented JitterConfig for configurable random delays
- Added with_jitter async helper for delayed execution
- Integrated registry, overlap, and jitter into register_job() method
- Added pause_job() and resume_job() for job lifecycle control

## Task Commits

Each task was committed atomically:

1. **Task 1: Implement JobRegistry for status tracking** - `aa27631` (feat)
   - registry.rs with JobRegistry, JobStatus, JobResult
   - 11 tests for thread safety and all operations

2. **Task 2: Implement OverlapPolicy and jitter utilities** - `47a5cf9` (feat)
   - overlap.rs with OverlapPolicy, OverlapGuard, RunGuard
   - jitter.rs with JitterConfig and with_jitter helper
   - 16 tests for overlap and jitter behavior

3. **Task 3: Integrate registry with SchedulerService** - `bf33349` (feat)
   - Added Arc<JobRegistry> to SchedulerService
   - Added register_job() with full lifecycle support
   - Added pause_job() and resume_job() methods
   - 11 integration tests

## Files Created/Modified
- `crates/memory-scheduler/src/registry.rs` - JobRegistry, JobStatus, JobResult (NEW)
- `crates/memory-scheduler/src/overlap.rs` - OverlapPolicy, OverlapGuard, RunGuard (NEW)
- `crates/memory-scheduler/src/jitter.rs` - JitterConfig, with_jitter (NEW)
- `crates/memory-scheduler/src/lib.rs` - Added module declarations and exports
- `crates/memory-scheduler/src/scheduler.rs` - Added registry field and register_job method
- `crates/memory-scheduler/Cargo.toml` - Added rand dependency

## Decisions Made
- **RwLock<HashMap> for registry:** Allows multiple concurrent readers for status queries while serializing writes
- **OverlapPolicy::Skip as default:** Safer default - prevents resource exhaustion from job pileup
- **AtomicBool for overlap guard:** Lock-free performance for checking running state
- **RAII RunGuard:** Ensures running flag is cleared even if job panics
- **Jitter in milliseconds:** Allows fine-grained control (0-N*1000ms range)
- **Pause check before overlap:** Paused jobs don't acquire the overlap guard at all

## Deviations from Plan

**[Rule 1 - Bug] Fixed clippy warning**
- **Found during:** Task 3 verification
- **Issue:** clippy complained about derivable_impls for JitterConfig::Default
- **Fix:** Changed manual impl Default to #[derive(Default)]
- **Files modified:** jitter.rs
- **Commit:** bf33349

## Issues Encountered
- Clippy warning for derivable Default impl - resolved by using derive macro

## API Summary

```rust
// Create scheduler
let scheduler = SchedulerService::new(config).await?;

// Register job with full lifecycle management
scheduler.register_job(
    "my-job",
    "0 0 * * * *",      // Cron expression
    None,               // Use default timezone
    OverlapPolicy::Skip, // Skip if already running
    JitterConfig::new(30), // Up to 30s random delay
    || async { do_work().await },
).await?;

// Check job status
let registry = scheduler.registry();
let status = registry.get_status("my-job").unwrap();
println!("Run count: {}", status.run_count);

// Pause/resume jobs
scheduler.pause_job("my-job")?;
scheduler.resume_job("my-job")?;

Next Phase Readiness

Job registry and lifecycle management complete
Ready for TOC rollup jobs (Plan 03) to wire existing rollups to scheduler
register_job() provides full observability via registry
Overlap policy prevents rollup job pileup

Update daemon commands.rs start_daemon function:

After storage initialization, create SchedulerService
Register rollup jobs using create_rollup_jobs
Register compaction job using create_compaction_job
Start scheduler before starting gRPC server
Wire scheduler shutdown into graceful shutdown flow

Key changes to start_daemon:

// After storage is created
let scheduler = SchedulerService::new(SchedulerConfig::default()).await?;

// Get or create summarizer (use MockSummarizer for now, or load from config)
let summarizer: Arc<dyn Summarizer> = Arc::new(MockSummarizer::new());

// Start scheduler
scheduler.start().await?;

// Get shutdown token for graceful shutdown
let scheduler_shutdown = scheduler.shutdown_token();

// Run gRPC server with shutdown signal
// ... existing server code ...

// On shutdown, stop scheduler first
scheduler.shutdown().await?;

Add scheduler to lib.rs exports if needed
Ensure daemon logs scheduler startup:
- "Scheduler started with N jobs"
- Job registration messages

Note: The summarizer is currently hardcoded to MockSummarizer. In production, this should be loaded from config (ApiSummarizer if OPENAI_API_KEY set). Add TODO comment for this enhancement.

cd /Users/richardhightower/clients/spillwave/src/agent-memory && cargo build -p memory-daemon Daemon starts scheduler on startup. Rollup and compaction jobs are registered. Graceful shutdown works. ```bash cd /Users/richardhightower/clients/spillwave/src/agent-memory

Build daemon with scheduler

cargo build -p memory-daemon

All scheduler tests pass

cargo test -p memory-scheduler

Daemon binary runs (brief test)

./target/debug/memory-daemon --help

Check scheduler is mentioned in daemon logs

(Manual verification by starting daemon in foreground)

# Phase 10 Plan 03: TOC Rollup Jobs Summary

Jobs module wiring existing memory-toc rollups to scheduler, integrated into daemon startup.

## One-Liner

TOC day/week/month rollup jobs plus compaction job wired to scheduler with daemon startup integration.

## What Was Built

### Task 1: Rollup Job Definitions
- Created `jobs` module in memory-scheduler with rollup and compaction submodules
- `RollupJobConfig` with configurable cron schedules:
  - Day rollup: 1 AM daily (`0 0 1 * * *`)
  - Week rollup: 2 AM Sunday (`0 0 2 * * 0`)
  - Month rollup: 3 AM 1st of month (`0 0 3 1 * *`)
- `create_rollup_jobs()` registers three jobs using existing `memory_toc::rollup::RollupJob`
- All jobs use `OverlapPolicy::Skip` and configurable jitter (default 5 min)

### Task 2: Compaction Job
- `CompactionJobConfig` with weekly schedule (4 AM Sunday)
- `create_compaction_job()` registers RocksDB compaction via `Storage::compact()`
- Uses 10 minute jitter to spread load

### Task 3: Daemon Integration
- Updated `start_daemon()` to create and start `SchedulerService`
- Registers rollup and compaction jobs on startup
- Added `run_server_with_scheduler()` function to memory-service
- Updated `MemoryServiceImpl` with `with_scheduler()` constructor
- Wired scheduler gRPC service handlers (GetSchedulerStatus, PauseJob, ResumeJob)
- Scheduler starts before gRPC server, graceful shutdown when server stops

## Key Decisions

| ID | Decision | Rationale |
|----|----------|-----------|
| JOBS-01 | Optional "jobs" feature (enabled by default) | Allows scheduler without heavy memory-toc dependency |
| JOBS-02 | MockSummarizer for rollup jobs | Production should configure ApiSummarizer; allows daemon to start without API keys |
| JOBS-03 | New run_server_with_scheduler function | Backward compatible with existing shutdown-only function |

## Technical Details

### Job Registration Pattern
```rust
create_rollup_jobs(
    &scheduler,
    storage.clone(),
    summarizer,
    RollupJobConfig::default(),
).await?;

create_compaction_job(
    &scheduler,
    storage.clone(),
    CompactionJobConfig::default(),
).await?;

Server Integration Pattern

let scheduler = SchedulerService::new(SchedulerConfig::default()).await?;
// ... register jobs ...
let result = run_server_with_scheduler(addr, storage, scheduler, shutdown_signal).await;

Commits

Hash	Message
580f2cb	feat(10-03): add rollup and compaction job definitions
64b0ed0	feat(10-03): integrate scheduler into daemon startup

Verification

All 58 memory-scheduler tests pass
Daemon builds successfully
CLI shows scheduler subcommand: memory-daemon scheduler status
Job registration logs on startup: "Scheduler initialized with 4 jobs"

Deviations from Plan

None - plan executed exactly as written.

Next Phase Readiness

Phase 10-04 (Job Observability) can proceed:

SchedulerGrpcService already wired into MemoryServiceImpl
Registry provides get_all_status() for job status queries
gRPC handlers (GetSchedulerStatus, PauseJob, ResumeJob) are functional
CLI scheduler subcommand exists with status/pause/resume commands

Add job observability via gRPC status RPC and CLI commands.

Purpose: Enable monitoring of scheduled jobs through both gRPC API and CLI. Output: GetSchedulerStatus RPC, scheduler CLI subcommand.

Add to proto/memory.proto after existing RPCs in MemoryService:

    // Scheduler RPCs (SCHED-05)

    // Get scheduler and job status
    rpc GetSchedulerStatus(GetSchedulerStatusRequest) returns (GetSchedulerStatusResponse);

    // Pause a scheduled job
    rpc PauseJob(PauseJobRequest) returns (PauseJobResponse);

    // Resume a paused job
    rpc ResumeJob(ResumeJobRequest) returns (ResumeJobResponse);

Add message definitions at end of proto file:

// ===== Scheduler Messages (SCHED-05) =====

// Result of a job execution
enum JobResultStatus {
    JOB_RESULT_STATUS_UNSPECIFIED = 0;
    JOB_RESULT_STATUS_SUCCESS = 1;
    JOB_RESULT_STATUS_FAILED = 2;
    JOB_RESULT_STATUS_SKIPPED = 3;
}

// Status of a scheduled job
message JobStatusProto {
    // Job name
    string job_name = 1;
    // Cron expression
    string cron_expr = 2;
    // Last execution time (ms since epoch, 0 if never run)
    int64 last_run_ms = 3;
    // Last execution duration (ms)
    int64 last_duration_ms = 4;
    // Last execution result
    JobResultStatus last_result = 5;
    // Last error message (if failed)
    optional string last_error = 6;
    // Next scheduled run (ms since epoch)
    int64 next_run_ms = 7;
    // Total successful runs
    uint64 run_count = 8;
    // Total failed runs
    uint64 error_count = 9;
    // Currently executing
    bool is_running = 10;
    // Paused by user
    bool is_paused = 11;
}

// Request for scheduler status
message GetSchedulerStatusRequest {}

// Response with scheduler status
message GetSchedulerStatusResponse {
    // Whether scheduler is running
    bool scheduler_running = 1;
    // All registered jobs
    repeated JobStatusProto jobs = 2;
}

// Request to pause a job
message PauseJobRequest {
    string job_name = 1;
}

// Response from pause
message PauseJobResponse {
    bool success = 1;
    optional string error = 2;
}

// Request to resume a job
message ResumeJobRequest {
    string job_name = 1;
}

// Response from resume
message ResumeJobResponse {
    bool success = 1;
    optional string error = 2;
}

Note: Use JobStatusProto (not JobStatus) to avoid conflict with Rust type.

}

Update crates/memory-service/src/lib.rs:
- Add module: pub mod scheduler_service;
- Export: SchedulerGrpcService
Update crates/memory-service/src/server.rs:
- Add scheduler parameter to run_server_with_shutdown
- Register scheduler service methods with gRPC server
- Note: This requires updating the MemoryService trait implementation to include scheduler RPCs, OR creating a separate service.
For simplicity, add scheduler methods to MemoryServiceImpl:
- Add scheduler: Option<Arc> field
- Add set_scheduler method
- Implement scheduler RPC handlers that delegate to SchedulerGrpcService
Add tests for scheduler status RPC

cd /Users/richardhightower/clients/spillwave/src/agent-memory && cargo test -p memory-service scheduler GetSchedulerStatus RPC returns job list. Pause/Resume RPCs work. Tests pass. Task 3: Add CLI scheduler commands crates/memory-daemon/src/cli.rs crates/memory-daemon/src/commands.rs Add scheduler subcommand to CLI:

Update crates/memory-daemon/src/cli.rs:

    Status,
    /// Pause a scheduled job
    Pause {
        /// Job name to pause

    },
    /// Resume a paused job
    Resume {
        /// Job name to resume
        job_name: String,
    },
}

    /// Scheduler management commands
    Scheduler {
        /// gRPC endpoint (default: http://127.0.0.1:50051)

# Phase 10 Plan 04: Job Observability Summary

**Scheduler status gRPC RPC and CLI commands for job monitoring, pause, and resume**

## Performance

- **Duration:** 24 min
- **Started:** 2026-02-01T02:02:31Z
- **Completed:** 2026-02-01T03:26:42Z
- **Tasks:** 3
- **Files created:** 1
- **Files modified:** 7
- **Total tests:** 57 (22 memory-service + 15 memory-daemon + 13 integration + 7 scheduler-service)

## Accomplishments
- Added GetSchedulerStatus, PauseJob, ResumeJob RPCs to proto with JobStatusProto message
- Implemented SchedulerGrpcService with all scheduler RPC handlers
- Added CLI scheduler subcommand with status, pause, resume commands
- Integrated scheduler service into MemoryServiceImpl with optional scheduler support
- Added formatted job status table output with RUNNING/PAUSED/IDLE states

## Task Commits

Each task was committed atomically:

1. **Task 1: Add scheduler proto messages and RPC** - `39fa8c7` (feat)
   - JobResultStatus enum, JobStatusProto message
   - GetSchedulerStatus, PauseJob, ResumeJob request/response messages
   - Placeholder implementations in MemoryServiceImpl

2. **Task 2: Implement gRPC scheduler service** - `e53a7f5` (feat)
   - scheduler_service.rs with SchedulerGrpcService
   - job_result_to_proto conversion helper
   - 7 unit tests for scheduler gRPC operations

3. **Task 3: Add CLI scheduler commands** - `20b1492` (feat)
   - SchedulerCommands enum (Status, Pause, Resume)
   - handle_scheduler function with formatted table output
   - 4 CLI tests for scheduler commands

## Files Created/Modified
- `proto/memory.proto` - Added scheduler messages and RPCs (SCHED-05)
- `crates/memory-service/src/scheduler_service.rs` - SchedulerGrpcService implementation (NEW)
- `crates/memory-service/src/ingest.rs` - Added scheduler RPC delegation to SchedulerGrpcService
- `crates/memory-service/src/lib.rs` - Added scheduler_service module and exports
- `crates/memory-service/Cargo.toml` - Added memory-scheduler dependency
- `crates/memory-daemon/src/cli.rs` - Added SchedulerCommands and Scheduler command
- `crates/memory-daemon/src/lib.rs` - Exported SchedulerCommands and handle_scheduler
- `crates/memory-daemon/src/main.rs` - Handle Scheduler command in main match

## Decisions Made
- **JobStatusProto name:** Used Proto suffix to avoid conflict with domain JobStatus type
- **Response-level errors:** Pause/Resume return success=false with error message rather than gRPC errors for non-existent jobs
- **CLI table format:** 92-character wide table with JOB, STATUS, LAST RUN, NEXT RUN, RUNS, ERRORS columns
- **Local time in CLI:** Timestamps formatted as local time (YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM) for human readability

## Deviations from Plan

None - plan executed exactly as written.

## Issues Encountered
- Binary was in architecture-specific target directory (target/aarch64-apple-darwin/debug/) rather than target/debug/ - adjusted verification commands accordingly

## API Summary

```rust
// CLI usage
memory-daemon scheduler status                 # Show all job statuses
memory-daemon scheduler pause hourly-rollup    # Pause a job
memory-daemon scheduler resume hourly-rollup   # Resume a job

// gRPC usage
let response = client.get_scheduler_status(GetSchedulerStatusRequest {}).await?;
println!("Scheduler running: {}", response.scheduler_running);
for job in response.jobs {
    println!("{}: {}", job.job_name, if job.is_paused { "PAUSED" } else { "IDLE" });
}

Next Phase Readiness

Job observability complete - can monitor and control scheduler via CLI and gRPC
All Phase 10 plans now complete (infrastructure, registry, rollup jobs, observability)
Ready for Phase 11 (Teleport - BM25 search)

Phase: 10-background-scheduler Completed: 2026-01-31

10-RESEARCH

Phase 10: Background Scheduler - Research

Researched: 2026-01-31 Domain: In-process async job scheduling with Tokio Confidence: HIGH

Summary

This phase adds a Tokio-based background scheduler for periodic jobs like TOC rollups, compaction, and future index maintenance. Research focused on the tokio-cron-scheduler crate (v0.15.x) which is the most mature and feature-complete option for async cron scheduling in Rust.

The standard approach is to embed tokio-cron-scheduler into the daemon process, configure timezone-aware scheduling via chrono-tz, implement overlap policies at the application level (the crate does not provide built-in overlap handling), add jitter through sleep delays before job execution, and leverage Tokio's cancellation tokens for graceful shutdown.

Primary recommendation: Use tokio-cron-scheduler 0.15.x with in-memory storage (no external persistence needed), implement a custom JobRegistry to track job metadata (last run, next run, status), and add overlap/jitter logic as wrapper functions around job execution.

Pattern 1: Scheduler Service Wrapper

What: Wrap JobScheduler in a custom SchedulerService that manages lifecycle and provides observability. When to use: Always - provides clean abstraction over raw scheduler. Example:

// Source: tokio-cron-scheduler docs + custom patterns
use tokio_cron_scheduler::{Job, JobScheduler};
use tokio_util::sync::CancellationToken;
use std::sync::Arc;

pub struct SchedulerService {
    scheduler: JobScheduler,
    registry: Arc<JobRegistry>,
    shutdown_token: CancellationToken,
}

impl SchedulerService {
    pub async fn new() -> Result<Self, SchedulerError> {
        let scheduler = JobScheduler::new().await?;
        Ok(Self {
            scheduler,
            registry: Arc::new(JobRegistry::new()),
            shutdown_token: CancellationToken::new(),
        })
    }

    pub async fn start(&self) -> Result<(), SchedulerError> {
        self.scheduler.start().await?;
        Ok(())
    }

    pub async fn shutdown(&self) {
        self.shutdown_token.cancel();
        self.scheduler.shutdown().await.ok();
    }
}

Pattern 2: Job Registry for Observability

What: Custom registry that tracks job metadata (last run, next run, status, duration). When to use: Required for job status observability via CLI/gRPC. Example:

use std::collections::HashMap;
use std::sync::RwLock;
use chrono::{DateTime, Utc};

#[derive(Debug, Clone)]
pub struct JobStatus {
    pub job_name: String,
    pub last_run: Option<DateTime<Utc>>,
    pub last_duration_ms: Option<u64>,
    pub last_result: Option<JobResult>,
    pub next_run: Option<DateTime<Utc>>,
    pub run_count: u64,
    pub error_count: u64,
    pub is_running: bool,
}

#[derive(Debug, Clone)]
pub enum JobResult {
    Success,
    Failed(String),
    Skipped(String),
}

pub struct JobRegistry {
    jobs: RwLock<HashMap<String, JobStatus>>,
}

impl JobRegistry {
    pub fn record_start(&self, job_name: &str) {
        let mut jobs = self.jobs.write().unwrap();
        if let Some(status) = jobs.get_mut(job_name) {
            status.is_running = true;
        }
    }

    pub fn record_complete(&self, job_name: &str, result: JobResult, duration_ms: u64) {
        let mut jobs = self.jobs.write().unwrap();
        if let Some(status) = jobs.get_mut(job_name) {
            status.is_running = false;
            status.last_run = Some(Utc::now());
            status.last_duration_ms = Some(duration_ms);
            status.last_result = Some(result.clone());
            status.run_count += 1;
            if matches!(result, JobResult::Failed(_)) {
                status.error_count += 1;
            }
        }
    }

    pub fn get_all_status(&self) -> Vec<JobStatus> {
        self.jobs.read().unwrap().values().cloned().collect()
    }
}

Pattern 3: Timezone-Aware Job Creation

What: Use _tz variants of job creation methods for timezone-aware scheduling. When to use: Always - ensures correct DST handling. Example:

use tokio_cron_scheduler::Job;
use chrono_tz::Tz;

// Create timezone-aware job using Job::new_async_tz
let timezone: Tz = "America/New_York".parse().unwrap();

let job = Job::new_async_tz(
    "0 0 2 * * *",  // 2 AM daily
    timezone,
    move |uuid, _lock| {
        Box::pin(async move {
            // Job logic
            tracing::info!("Running daily rollup job");
        })
    }
)?;

Pattern 4: Overlap Policy Wrapper

What: Implement overlap policies (skip, queue, concurrent) as wrapper functions. When to use: For long-running jobs that might overlap. Example:

use std::sync::atomic::{AtomicBool, Ordering};
use std::sync::Arc;

#[derive(Debug, Clone, Copy)]
pub enum OverlapPolicy {
    Skip,       // Skip if already running
    Queue,      // Wait for previous to finish (not recommended for cron)
    Concurrent, // Allow concurrent execution
}

pub struct OverlapGuard {
    is_running: Arc<AtomicBool>,
    policy: OverlapPolicy,
}

impl OverlapGuard {
    pub fn new(policy: OverlapPolicy) -> Self {
        Self {
            is_running: Arc::new(AtomicBool::new(false)),
            policy,
        }
    }

    /// Returns Some(guard) if job should run, None if should skip
    pub fn try_acquire(&self) -> Option<RunGuard> {
        match self.policy {
            OverlapPolicy::Skip => {
                if self.is_running.compare_exchange(
                    false, true,
                    Ordering::SeqCst, Ordering::SeqCst
                ).is_ok() {
                    Some(RunGuard { flag: self.is_running.clone() })
                } else {
                    tracing::info!("Skipping job - previous run still in progress");
                    None
                }
            }
            OverlapPolicy::Concurrent => {
                Some(RunGuard { flag: Arc::new(AtomicBool::new(true)) })
            }
            OverlapPolicy::Queue => {
                // Spin-wait (not recommended for cron jobs)
                while self.is_running.compare_exchange(
                    false, true,
                    Ordering::SeqCst, Ordering::SeqCst
                ).is_err() {
                    std::thread::sleep(std::time::Duration::from_millis(100));
                }
                Some(RunGuard { flag: self.is_running.clone() })
            }
        }
    }
}

pub struct RunGuard {
    flag: Arc<AtomicBool>,
}

impl Drop for RunGuard {
    fn drop(&mut self) {
        self.flag.store(false, Ordering::SeqCst);
    }
}

Pattern 5: Jitter Implementation

What: Add random delay before job execution to spread load. When to use: When multiple instances might run the same schedule. Example:

use rand::Rng;
use std::time::Duration;

/// Add jitter delay before job execution
/// max_jitter_secs: Maximum random delay in seconds
pub async fn with_jitter<F, T>(max_jitter_secs: u64, job_fn: F) -> T
where
    F: std::future::Future<Output = T>,
{
    if max_jitter_secs > 0 {
        let jitter_ms = rand::thread_rng().gen_range(0..max_jitter_secs * 1000);
        tokio::time::sleep(Duration::from_millis(jitter_ms)).await;
    }
    job_fn.await
}

// Usage in job:
let job = Job::new_async_tz(
    "0 0 * * * *",  // Every hour
    timezone,
    move |uuid, _lock| {
        Box::pin(async move {
            // Add up to 5 minutes of jitter
            with_jitter(300, async {
                do_actual_work().await;
            }).await;
        })
    }
)?;

Anti-Patterns to Avoid

Blocking in async jobs: Never use std::thread::sleep() in async job callbacks. Use tokio::time::sleep().
Single-threaded test runtime: Tests hang if using #[tokio::test] without flavor = "multi_thread".
Ignoring DST: Always use _tz job variants and avoid scheduling between 1-3 AM on DST transition dates.
No overlap handling: Jobs without overlap guards can pile up if execution exceeds interval.
Hardcoded schedules: Put cron expressions in configuration, not code.

Don't Hand-Roll

Problems that look simple but have existing solutions:

Problem	Don't Build	Use Instead	Why
Cron parsing	Custom parser	croner (via tokio-cron-scheduler)	Edge cases: day-of-week, month boundaries, leap years
DST handling	Manual offset calculation	chrono-tz	IANA database updates, historical timezone changes
Graceful shutdown	Manual task tracking	tokio_util::sync::CancellationToken	Race conditions, missed cancellation signals
Job scheduling	Manual tokio::spawn + sleep	tokio-cron-scheduler	Next-run calculation, missed execution handling
Timezone database	Static offset mappings	chrono-tz	Timezone rules change (North Korea 2015, Russia 2011)

Key insight: Cron scheduling has decades of edge cases. The croner library explicitly handles DST gaps (spring forward) and overlaps (fall back) per the Open Cron Pattern Specification. Don't reinvent this wheel.

Common Pitfalls

Pitfall 1: Test Hangs on scheduler.add()

What goes wrong: Tests hang indefinitely when adding jobs to scheduler. Why it happens: Default #[tokio::test] uses single-threaded runtime; scheduler requires multi-threaded. How to avoid: Use #[tokio::test(flavor = "multi_thread")] for all scheduler tests. Warning signs: Test appears to hang after calling scheduler.add().

Pitfall 2: DST "Lost Hour" Jobs

What goes wrong: Jobs scheduled between 2-3 AM don't run on spring-forward DST dates. Why it happens: The hour 2:00-2:59 doesn't exist when clocks jump from 2 AM to 3 AM. How to avoid: Avoid scheduling critical jobs in the 1-3 AM window; use UTC for critical jobs. Warning signs: Job didn't run on a specific Sunday in March/November.

Pitfall 3: Overlapping Long-Running Jobs

What goes wrong: Multiple instances of the same job run concurrently, causing resource exhaustion. Why it happens: If job takes longer than interval, next run starts before previous finishes. How to avoid: Implement OverlapPolicy::Skip for all rollup jobs. Warning signs: Growing memory usage, duplicate processing, database contention.

Pitfall 4: Shutdown Losing Work

What goes wrong: In-progress jobs are cancelled abruptly, leaving partial work. Why it happens: scheduler.shutdown() cancels running jobs immediately. How to avoid: Use CancellationToken to signal jobs to checkpoint and finish cleanly. Warning signs: Partial rollups, checkpoint inconsistency after restart.

Pitfall 5: Scheduler Not Starting

What goes wrong: Jobs are added but never execute. Why it happens: Forgot to call scheduler.start() after adding jobs. How to avoid: Always call .start() before expecting jobs to run. Warning signs: Jobs show "next_run" time but never execute.

Code Examples

Verified patterns from official sources:

Basic Async Job with Timezone

// Source: https://github.com/mvniekerk/tokio-cron-scheduler
use tokio_cron_scheduler::{Job, JobScheduler};
use chrono_tz::Tz;

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
    let sched = JobScheduler::new().await?;

    let timezone: Tz = "America/New_York".parse()?;

    // Run every 10 seconds
    sched.add(
        Job::new_async_tz("1/10 * * * * *", timezone, |uuid, _lock| {
            Box::pin(async move {
                println!("Job {:?} running", uuid);
            })
        })?
    ).await?;

    sched.start().await?;

    // Keep running
    tokio::time::sleep(std::time::Duration::from_secs(100)).await;

    sched.shutdown().await?;
    Ok(())
}

Job with Notification Callbacks

// Source: https://github.com/mvniekerk/tokio-cron-scheduler
use tokio_cron_scheduler::{Job, JobScheduler, JobSchedulerError};

async fn create_job_with_notifications() -> Result<Job, JobSchedulerError> {
    let mut job = Job::new_async("0 * * * * *", |uuid, _lock| {
        Box::pin(async move {
            println!("Running job {}", uuid);
        })
    })?;

    // Notification when job starts
    job.on_start_notification_add(
        &JobScheduler::new().await?,
        Box::new(|job_id, notification_id, type_of_notification| {
            Box::pin(async move {
                println!("Job {:?} started", job_id);
            })
        }),
    ).await?;

    Ok(job)
}

Graceful Shutdown with CancellationToken

// Source: https://tokio.rs/tokio/topics/shutdown
use tokio_util::sync::CancellationToken;
use tokio::signal;

async fn run_with_graceful_shutdown(
    scheduler: JobScheduler,
    shutdown_token: CancellationToken,
) {
    let ctrl_c = async {
        signal::ctrl_c().await.expect("Failed to install Ctrl+C handler");
    };

    #[cfg(unix)]
    let terminate = async {
        signal::unix::signal(signal::unix::SignalKind::terminate())
            .expect("Failed to install SIGTERM handler")
            .recv()
            .await;
    };

    #[cfg(not(unix))]
    let terminate = std::future::pending::<()>();

    tokio::select! {
        _ = ctrl_c => {
            tracing::info!("Received Ctrl+C, initiating shutdown");
        }
        _ = terminate => {
            tracing::info!("Received SIGTERM, initiating shutdown");
        }
    }

    // Signal all jobs to stop gracefully
    shutdown_token.cancel();

    // Give jobs time to finish current work
    tokio::time::sleep(std::time::Duration::from_secs(5)).await;

    // Stop scheduler
    scheduler.shutdown().await.ok();
}

TOC Rollup Job Definition

// Pattern for integrating existing RollupJob with scheduler
use memory_toc::rollup::{RollupJob, RollupError};
use memory_storage::Storage;
use std::sync::Arc;

pub fn create_rollup_job(
    storage: Arc<Storage>,
    summarizer: Arc<dyn Summarizer>,
    cron_expr: &str,
    timezone: Tz,
    overlap_guard: Arc<OverlapGuard>,
    registry: Arc<JobRegistry>,
) -> Result<Job, JobSchedulerError> {
    let job_name = "toc_rollup".to_string();

    Job::new_async_tz(cron_expr, timezone, move |uuid, _lock| {
        let storage = storage.clone();
        let summarizer = summarizer.clone();
        let overlap_guard = overlap_guard.clone();
        let registry = registry.clone();
        let job_name = job_name.clone();

        Box::pin(async move {
            // Check overlap policy
            let Some(_guard) = overlap_guard.try_acquire() else {
                registry.record_complete(
                    &job_name,
                    JobResult::Skipped("Previous run still active".into()),
                    0
                );
                return;
            };

            registry.record_start(&job_name);
            let start = std::time::Instant::now();

            // Run the actual rollup
            match memory_toc::rollup::run_all_rollups(storage, summarizer).await {
                Ok(count) => {
                    tracing::info!(count, "TOC rollup completed");
                    registry.record_complete(
                        &job_name,
                        JobResult::Success,
                        start.elapsed().as_millis() as u64
                    );
                }
                Err(e) => {
                    tracing::error!(error = %e, "TOC rollup failed");
                    registry.record_complete(
                        &job_name,
                        JobResult::Failed(e.to_string()),
                        start.elapsed().as_millis() as u64
                    );

State of the Art

Old Approach	Current Approach	When Changed	Impact
job-scheduler (sync)	tokio-cron-scheduler (async)	2022+	Native async support, no blocking threads
cron crate	croner	2024	Better DST handling per OCPS spec
Manual UTC offset	chrono-tz	Ongoing	IANA database updates automatically
External scheduler (cron, systemd)	In-process scheduler	Architecture choice	Better integration, no external dependencies

Deprecated/outdated:

job-scheduler crate: Synchronous, blocks threads. Use tokio-cron-scheduler instead.
Manual UTC offsets: Timezone rules change. Always use chrono-tz with IANA database.

Open Questions

Things that couldn't be fully resolved:

Queue overlap policy implementation
- What we know: Skip and Concurrent are straightforward; Queue requires blocking/waiting
- What's unclear: Best async pattern for queue-style waiting without blocking tokio runtime
- Recommendation: Start with Skip policy only; Queue rarely needed for cron jobs
Job persistence across daemon restarts
- What we know: tokio-cron-scheduler supports PostgreSQL/Nats persistence
- What's unclear: Whether persistence is needed when checkpoints already exist in RocksDB
- Recommendation: Use in-memory scheduler; rely on existing checkpoint system for job recovery
Metrics integration
- What we know: JobRegistry provides status data; need to expose via gRPC/CLI
- What's unclear: Best format for metrics (Prometheus? Custom RPC?)
- Recommendation: Defer metrics format decision; implement JobRegistry now, expose via existing gRPC

Risks and Mitigations

Risk	Likelihood	Impact	Mitigation
tokio-cron-scheduler abandonment	LOW	HIGH	Mature crate (700+ stars), fallback to manual implementation
DST edge case bugs	MEDIUM	LOW	Use UTC for critical jobs, extensive testing around DST dates
Job pileup under load	MEDIUM	MEDIUM	Overlap policy (Skip) + monitoring via registry
Shutdown data loss	LOW	HIGH	Cancellation tokens + checkpoint system
Cron expression misconfiguration	MEDIUM	LOW	Validation at config load time, test with mocked time
