deliver='bot-chat[:<profile>]' is a machine-local pseudo-platform: the
scheduler delivers job output as a real inbound turn in the target
profile's canonical Bot Chat via the chat CLI lane (--in ~ -c "Bot Chat"
--create-if-missing -Q --query-file), the same lane Bot Mode
agent-to-agent messages use. The bot reads the output, acts on it, and
responds in its chat — instead of the output only landing in Run history.
- cron/scheduler.py: token parsing, target resolution (own profile /
named local profile / unknown -> skipped with warning), subprocess
delivery lane with cron.bot_chat_delivery_timeout_seconds (default
600s), preflight exemption, and bot-chat entries in
cron_delivery_targets() for UI pickers. Excluded from 'all' by design.
- tools/cronjob_tools.py: create/update-time validation — named profiles
must exist on this machine (fail at create, not at 3am); deliver schema
documents the new token.
- tui_gateway/methods_tools.py: cron.manage add forwards deliver.
- hermes_cli/profiles.py: list_profile_names() cheap name-only scan.
- hermes-bots plugin: Create Cronjob dialog gains a 'Send results to'
picker (Run history only / <bot>'s chat); bot-chat jobs send the BARE
token on the profile-scoped create so Desktop-side aliases can never
name a profile the backend doesn't have.
- Docs: user cron guide, automate-with-cron, cron-internals.
Machine-local by construction: names resolve only against the executing
machine's ~/.hermes/profiles/, so overlapping profile names across
multiple connected gateways are unambiguous.
