`cronjob(action='run')` (and `hermes cron run`) only set `next_run_at = now`
and returned success, relying on the scheduler ticker to actually execute the
job on its next tick. When no gateway/ticker is running — a CLI-only setup, or
the Windows case in #41037 — the job never executed: `run` reported success,
but `last_run_at` stayed null forever, no output, no delivery.
A manual `run` should actually run. `_execute_job_now` now:
- **claims the job via `claim_job_for_fire`** — the same at-most-once CAS the
scheduler/external-provider fire path uses. This both advances `next_run_at`
for recurring jobs and blocks a concurrently-running gateway ticker from
double-firing the same job; if the claim is lost, the run is skipped (the
tool reports `execution_skipped`). This closes the double-fire race that a
bare `advance_next_run` left open (a tick whose `get_due_jobs` already
captured the job between trigger and advance would still fire it).
- **delegates firing to `run_one_job`** — the single shared
execute→save→deliver→mark body the ticker and external providers use — so
failure delivery, `[SILENT]` handling, and live-adapter delivery stay
identical across paths and can't drift. (The original salvage re-implemented
this sequence inline and had already dropped failure delivery + `[SILENT]`.)
The tool response carries `executed`, `execution_success`, and either
`execution_error` or `execution_skipped`. The `hermes cron run` CLI message no
longer claims "It will run on the next scheduler tick" — it reports the actual
"Ran now: succeeded/failed" outcome (or the skip).
Salvaged from #41130 by @kyssta-exe (authorship preserved); reworked to reuse
`claim_job_for_fire` + `run_one_job` per review rather than re-implementing the
fire sequence inline. Adds tests for the claim-then-fire path, claim-lost skip,
failure reporting, and exception capture.
Fixes#41037
