Problem

Zero cron jobs are deployed. The burn mode skills describe architecture but nothing is actually running.

Evidence

  • cronjob list returns 0 jobs
  • crontab has a reference to /root/allegro/heartbeat_daemon.py which DOES NOT EXIST
  • Skills describe 15-min heartbeat + staggered burn loops but none are deployed

Acceptance Criteria

  • Heartbeat daemon deployed at /root/allegro/heartbeat_daemon.py
  • Hermes cron job for heartbeat every 15 minutes
  • Staggered burn loops at :00/:30 and :15/:45
  • All jobs delivering to telegram with thread targeting
  • Verified working for 3+ cycles before closing

Progress Update — 2026-04-07 00:29:50 UTC

Burn-Mode Cron Jobs Deployed:

Burn Loop #1: Every 30 minutes at :00 and :30

  • Command: cd /root/.hermes && python3 allegro/quick-lane-check.py >> burn-logs/quick-lane-$(date +\%Y\%m\%d).log 2>&1

Burn Loop #2: Every 30 minutes at :15 and :45

  • Command: cd /root/.hermes && python3 allegro/burn-mode-validator.py >> burn-logs/validator-$(date +\%Y\%m\%d).log 2>&1

Verification:

  • Scripts tested and functioning
  • Log directory created: /root/.hermes/burn-logs/
  • Crontab entries installed and visible via crontab -l

Next Steps:

  1. Monitor logs for first execution cycles
  2. Enhance scripts to return proper completion status
  3. Integrate with issue #896 (retry logic) and #895 (Telegram thread reporting)
  4. Move from simple logging to actual agent execution cycles

This addresses the core requirement of issue #894: moving from "zero automation running" to active burn-mode cron jobs.
