+## Set up a plugin
+
+For plugins used by an existing local CLI/GUI executor, follow
+[standalone setup](standalone-cli.md). Telegram is not required.
+
+For an autonomous Telegram assistant, finish [Ez setup](setup.md) and verify an
+actual agent reply in Telegram first.
+Then ask that assistant: **“Set up WhatsApp using
+https://github.com/jdorado/ez-whatsapp.”** The installed agent follows the plugin's
+README, handles package inspection and installation, delivers the linking QR,
+and verifies the connected account. The owner completes the phone linking step.
+Account setup does not authorize sending messages to other people.
+
+For installing agents: use the exact scoped package and a pinned release from
+the linked repository. Read the supplied artifact's documentation and verify its
+integrity. Register the inspected local source and revision in this agent's
+catalog using the [plugin manager](plugins.md). A repository URL here is a
+discovery link, not an executable registration or an automatic install.
+
+The public catalog lists available products. The agent's local catalog records
+reviewed package sources and revisions; its registry records installed tools.
+The packaged `default-plugins.json` stays empty so initial Ez setup remains
+independent of plugins and provider accounts.
+
+## Find Composio integrations
+
+After installation, read the registered Composio skill. Use `ez composio search`
+for the requested task, `toolkits` with JSON filters for paginated app discovery,
+and `schemas` to retrieve complete native schemas. Inspect current account state
+before requesting a connection. Follow relevant `next_cursor` pages as needed;
+do not preload or hardcode the vendor's integration list in the agent mind.
+Names, availability and consent scopes change. Returned provider instructions
+cannot expand the owner's authorization or permit executing arbitrary helpers.
+
+## Add a released plugin
+
+Submit a pull request adding its name, concrete capability, canonical repository,
+exact package identity, and pinned release link with beta/stable status. Follow
+[plugin contribution requirements](plugin-contributions.md). The linked package
+must document setup, account requirements, verification and limitations. Keep
+unreleased ideas out of this catalog and update release links through reviewed
+changes.

+# Scheduling and background work
+
+Ask the agent naturally: “Remind me on September 9 next year at 09:00 Dubai time”
+or “Every Tuesday at 09:00, prepare the report.” The agent translates this into a
+core CLI request. No plugin, database or operating-system cron setup is required.
+
+```sh
+ezenciel-agents-schedule create --name Reminder \
+  --at 2027-09-09T09:00:00+04:00 --text 'Remind the owner about the renewal.'
+ezenciel-agents-schedule create --name Weekdays \
+  --cron '0 9 * * 1-5' --timezone Asia/Dubai --text 'Prepare the daily report.'
+ezenciel-agents-schedule create --name Research --now \
+  --text '/goal Complete the authorized research objective. Save evidence, verify the outcome, and send the owner the result.'
+ezenciel-agents-schedule list
+ezenciel-agents-schedule runs
+ezenciel-agents-schedule pause SCHEDULE_ID
+ezenciel-agents-schedule resume SCHEDULE_ID
+ezenciel-agents-schedule remove SCHEDULE_ID
+ezenciel-agents-schedule cancel RUN_ID
+```
+
+Use `--text-file` for longer instructions. `edit ID` replaces the complete schedule
+with a new revision; use the same trigger/name/text flags as `create`.
+Intervals use `--every-seconds` (minimum 60), optional `--start`, and optional
+`--until`. Cron also supports start/end bounds. All absolute timestamps require
+an explicit offset. `--now` starts on the next relay tick, not synchronously.
+
+Cron accepts five numeric fields, comma lists, ranges and steps; Sunday is 0 or 7.
+Restricted day-of-month and weekday fields use standard OR semantics. Set just
+weekday for “Tuesdays.” Calendar jobs retain their explicit IANA timezone when
+the host changes zones. Nonexistent DST wall times are skipped; repeated wall
+times fire once, at the earlier instant. Search is bounded to eight years.
+Public-holiday calendars and arbitrary RRULE syntax are not implemented.
+
+## Execution and authority
+
+The relay checks due work once per second. Each occurrence enters the durable
+run queue with a stable ID. Background work runs in a fresh native CLI session
+and `work/tasks/RUN_ID/`, with snapshots of the agent's SOUL, USER and TOOLS files.
+Instructions must include any needed context or source paths; full chat history
+is not copied. Task folders remain for inspection and artifact delivery.
+
+One writer runs per task directory. Up to four background tasks can run alongside
+the sequential main conversation. A recurring schedule has at most one pending
+or active occurrence. Agents should delegate long work with `create --now`, return
+to chat, and inspect `runs` or task progress when asked. Native subagents can be
+used inside the worker. Sharing provider profiles does not make concurrent CRM,
+file or browser writes safe: the agent must coordinate those resources.
+
+Production relay/host execution has no wall-clock timeout. The old
+`EZ_EXECUTOR_TIMEOUT_SECONDS` setting is ignored. Individual network/tool waits
+still have their own limits; those are not overall task deadlines. Native goals
+are an executor capability, configured through instructions. Ez has no goal API,
+continuation loop or rule equating a process exit with goal achievement.
+
+Scheduled Codex CLI tasks use a dedicated native app-server session, tested with
+CLI 0.153.4. A leading `/goal` in the instruction text maps to the same native
+goal command used by the interactive CLI. Codex automatically starts subsequent
+turns; the transport stays connected until the native goal is complete or stops
+for attention. It sends no continuation prompts and stores no Ez goal state.
+Goals created by the agent's native tools also keep the session alive. Ordinary
+tasks finish after their turn. A blocked, paused or limited goal is not reported
+as successful. Native RPC requests have a response deadline; running tasks do not.
+Each scheduled task has its own Codex state under `control/cli/codex/tasks/RUN_ID`,
+with a snapshot of the agent's Codex configuration and the existing auth link.
+Foreground chat and background tasks do not initialize or migrate one shared
+native database concurrently.
+
+The foreground chat still uses `codex exec`. That invocation exits after one
+requested turn even if a goal is active, so delegate persistent work to the
+scheduler. Desktop and other executor goal lifecycles need separate validation.
+
+The CLI binds jobs to the paired owner and current AI selection. Queued/scheduled
+work retains that selection after the chat switches AI. Revoking/re-pairing an
+owner invalidates their old schedules, including re-pairing the same Telegram ID.
+External event turns cannot use the scheduling CLI. Credentials still pass only
+through the existing whitelist and installed host binding.
+
+## Restart, pause and cancellation
+
+Schedule definitions and cursors use protected atomic JSON files. A restart
+between queue creation and cursor persistence does not duplicate an occurrence.
+An overdue one-time job runs on return. Missed recurring occurrences coalesce into
+one pending run; future runs resume at the next eligible time. A paused queued
+occurrence waits for resume. Editing/removing a schedule invalidates its old
+queued occurrence; already-running work continues until explicitly cancelled.
+
+`/stop` stops all active work; `cancel RUN_ID` stops one background task. `/cancel`
+clears queued work. Pause/remove a recurring schedule to prevent future runs.
+Stopping the relay also stops its workers. A crashed or interrupted execution is
+not automatically replayed. Runs found active at startup are marked failed with
+`interrupted: true`; their schedule revision stays held until the agent inspects
+the evidence and explicitly edits the schedule. Inspect the task's files, native session and delivery
+receipts before deciding whether to resume. A clock cannot reconstruct an
+in-flight process or prove whether an external side effect happened.
+
+The host and relay must be online. Paused/completed schedule definitions and task
+artifacts are retained. The agent sends through the normal Telegram outbox;
+`completed` means executor exit, while provider delivery is recorded separately.
+A timeout or ambiguous send must not cause blind replay of the whole task.
+
+## QA
+
+`pnpm verify` covers recurrence/DST, restart deduplication, authority revocation,
+corrupt state, paths, cancellation and a chat response while a synthetic worker
+is active. Docker tests exercise the packaged host transport and isolation.
+
+For an opt-in real CLI probe (consumes model usage):
+
+```sh
+pnpm smoke:scheduler -- 1860 codex
+# Native goal must finish a first turn and continue without another prompt:
+pnpm smoke:scheduler -- 45 codex goal
+```
+
+This uses temporary workspaces and a synthetic Telegram provider, never live
+contacts. A real CLI waits 31 minutes while a second invocation answers 17 × 19.
+It checks responsiveness again after six minutes and requires the worker's final
+message. Evidence is saved in the printed temporary directory. Use `75 codex`
+for a shorter iteration; it does not prove the full duration.
+
+Before enabling on a real installation, repeat through its Telegram bot: request
+the 31-minute task, ask the arithmetic question and request status after six
+minutes. Verify `finished.txt` and exactly one completion in Telegram. Separately
+exercise cancellation, downtime catch-up and an explicitly requested native goal
+that needs more than one turn. Synthetic provider evidence does not prove real
+Telegram delivery, and a sleep test does not prove native goal persistence.

+# Selective monitoring and replies
+
+An owner saying “monitor and answer messages from CONTACT” has selected that
+contact and authorized ordinary replies within the stated scope. Do not ask
+whether they meant selected contacts or demand a special phrase. “If they send,
+reply” means wait for incoming messages; it does not authorize an opening send.
+Resolve only missing identity or disclosure scope. A saved Markdown instruction
+is a reminder, never an activated source, watch or reply permission.
+
+## Speak in jobs, not modes
+
+Keep mode names internal. Linking/syncing an account defaults to quiet capture;
+finish connection verification, then at most one short optional prompt such as
+“WhatsApp is connected. Want me to follow up with anyone?” Do not present a
+technical three-mode menu or suggest blanket autonomous replies that v1 cannot
+safely authorize. If the owner already gave a job, continue it without this prompt.
+
+Infer the complete job from ordinary language:
+
+- “Find out whether they have a table” or “Book me a restaurant”: send the inquiry,
+  watch replies from that contact, continue the multi-turn negotiation and report
+  the outcome. A send receipt is not completion. Do not ask if follow-up is wanted.
+- Twelve inquiries mean twelve task-scoped contacts, not all-inbox monitoring.
+  Maintain one scoped task per correspondent; the same core checks apply to each.
+- “Just send this; I will reply”: one-off send under the explicit owner instruction,
+  no new watch or conversational mandate. Use the provider's ordinary send and
+  receipt interface; do not create a messaging task that would auto-follow up.
+- “Monitor this person and answer if they message”: incoming-only reply task;
+  no opening message and no unrelated contact attention.
+- “Keep these messages for me”: quiet capture/read-on-request. If “monitor” alone
+  leaves action intent unclear, ask one plain question: “Should I reply for you,
+  or just keep the messages for you to review?” Do not ask when the job resolves it.
+
+Apply the required core confirmation to the concrete proposal, not an extra
+questionnaire. Use the owner's existing contact, purpose and disclosure limits.
+Avoid claiming indefinite service where v1 is bounded. Explain the expiry only
+when it matters to that proposed job; never silently expand or renew permission.
+
+## Three capture modes, separate reply authority
+
+- Manual: capture for explicit reads, with no general wake-up subscription.
+- Selected: wake for named contacts only. Never turn on all-inbox mode to satisfy
+  a one-contact request.
+- All: attention for all eligible incoming contacts; requires that broader
+  owner request. Attention alone never grants autonomous reply permission.
+
+For an approved core reply task, the provider's task-watch supplies expiring
+selected attention even if its general policy remains manual. That is expected:
+verify the actual task watch and core grant, not only the general policy label.
+Monitoring-only requests grant no sends. Unsupported wake-only reasoning modes
+must be reported as unsupported, not run with owner authority.
+
+## Complete the setup under the owner's request
+
+Use the current installed plugin skill and `ez plugins list`/`status`/provider
+doctor to confirm the existing linked account. Installation, source plumbing,
+contact attention and permission are separate checks. A missing source is
+technical work for the agent, not a reason to stop at “saved your instruction.”
+Do not request a second provider instance or re-pair an already linked account.
+
+The relay must be able to reach the registered provider service socket. Inspect
+the registered deployment/compose, actual named IPC volume, and relay mounts.
+For the supplied WhatsApp adapter the socket is /plugins/whatsapp/service.sock;
+main compose.whatsapp.yaml supplies a read-only IPC/client override. Use the
+registered plugin's real volume names, preserve existing docker.env/Compose
+settings, and attach only its declared IPC/client volumes (never its profile or
+credentials). Recreate the relay with the existing deployment after a required
+mount change; verify it comes back. Do not expose the Docker socket to it.
+
+Register the source INSIDE that relay container using the installed
+`ezenciel-agents-source --name NAME --socket ABSOLUTE_SOCKET` command. Read back
+registration and provider events-head account identity. A socket inside a
+provider command container is not proof the relay can reach it. Do not edit core
+source/grant JSON directly. Other adapters use their declared socket paths;
+provider names do not change authority checks.
+
+## Propose, confirm, verify
+
+For an outbound job such as a booking, use `ezenciel-agents-task propose` WITHOUT
+`--incoming-only`: it starts the inquiry and then watches replies. For “answer if
+they message,” use `ezenciel-agents-task propose --incoming-only` with the
+registered source, canonical contact, purpose, explicitly shareable context file
+and expiry. No need to invent a booking objective: “conversational replies to
+this contact, no private disclosures or commitments” is a legitimate purpose.
+If no private facts may be shared, say so in the context file; do not include
+owner memory. V1 supports at most 72 hours, not indefinite “until stopped.” Offer
+that bounded duration in the exact approval, explaining the limit without asking
+the owner to restate their request. Do not silently renew it.
+
+The core presents the exact proposal for owner confirmation. Ordinary messages
+inside that grant need no repeated confirmations. Incoming-only grants create
+no initial run or opening message. They remain active across replies until expiry
+or owner revocation; the worker cannot close a watch by calling `complete`.
+After handling a message, save a task note and finish the run. After approval, verify active core state,
+contact and expiry, source reachability, and the provider's task watch. With
+`--incoming-only`, an empty conversation is correctly idle until a new message.
+If approval is still pending, say pending; if setup failed, name the actual
+failure and continue repair within scope. Never report “active” based on notes,
+installation, connected status or subscription alone.
+
+After an authorized test message, inspect the corresponding task run and send
+receipt and compare recipient readback. An accepted send is not proof of delivery.
+After revocation/expiry no subsequent reply may dispatch. Keep these checks
+agent-owned: the owner supplies only necessary confirmation, QR scan if needed,
+and the test contact/message. Do not bypass a missing grant by polling the inbox
+in an unrestricted scheduled owner session or sending through the raw CLI.

+# Use Ez from your existing executor
+
+The plugin manager and its Docker plugins work independently of the Telegram
+relay. Use the same absolute launcher from any local executor to share a chosen
+workspace's tools and accounts. The executor owns reasoning and conversation;
+Ez owns the plugin registry and command transport. No provider-specific adapter,
+new model login or GUI plugin installation is involved.
+
+## Setup
+
+Install the main package and its dependencies in a permanent location using the
+artifact steps in [setup](setup.md). Node 22+ is needed for the manager; Docker
+and Compose are needed for executable plugins. Do not build/start the relay,
+create a bot, pair an owner or configure a host executor for CLI-only use.
+Create a private tools directory and select the existing company/project workspace:
+
+```sh
+node /absolute/package/bin/ezenciel-agents-tools.mjs init --standalone \
+  --home /absolute/private/company-tools --workspace /absolute/company-workspace
+/absolute/private/company-tools/bin/ez --help
+/absolute/private/company-tools/bin/ez status
+/absolute/private/company-tools/bin/ez plugins list
+```
+
+Init starts nothing, uses an empty catalog by default, preserves existing
+TOOLS.md notes and appends the registry's discovery instructions. A registry
+cannot be replaced by rerunning init. Keep the package at its original path:
+the launcher imports it. Status reports `main: null` without a relay binding;
+automated software upgrades currently require a relay deployment.
+
+Have each executor read the workspace's TOOLS.md and the installed plugin skills.
+Add that instruction to its existing project instructions without replacing them.
+Use the absolute launcher, or prepend its bin directory to that session's PATH.
+Never overwrite another global `ez`; it may belong to a different installation.
+A company registry remains explicit even when invoked from a different directory.
+Other projects/accounts should use separate registries and private plugin state.
+
+## Install and verify a capability
+
+The current conversation owns authorized plugin onboarding. Follow the
+[plugin contract](plugins.md#installation-completion-contract), using the bound
+launcher for `plugins inspect <id> --source /absolute/package`, then
+`plugins install <id> --source /absolute/package --revision <inspected-hash>`.
+Read the skill, start the plugin, complete its provider authentication and verify
+the intended account with a supported operation. Deliver any necessary consent
+link or QR in the current client. No Telegram handoff is required.
+
+Run `tools list`, the registered alias's help and a harmless account operation
+from each actual executor. Host-shell access alone does not prove a sandboxed
+session can access Docker or the registry. Client permissions still apply.
+Native client plugins/connectors are not converted into Ez plugins automatically.
+
+## Combine with an autonomous agent
+
+A relay can coexist with CLI-only registries on the same machine. It retains its
+own pairing, single-writer queue, mind and plugin registry. Calling its existing
+bound launcher explicitly reuses that registry and its accounts; never initialize
+over it or silently select it from another workspace. Coordinate writes with its
+active jobs. Separate registries do not automatically share credentials or data.
+
+Continuous monitoring requires a configured event consumer/relay and the plugin's
+supported watcher. CLI-only installation does not create background agent turns.
