-/**
- * WAB Cluster — Distributed Execution, Worker Nodes & Cluster Orchestration
- *
- * Turns WAB from a single-server Agent OS into a distributed fleet.
- *
- * Architecture:
- *   ┌──────────────┐     ┌──────────┐     ┌──────────┐
- *   │  Coordinator │────▶│ Worker-1 │     │ Worker-2 │
- *   │  (this node) │────▶│  (remote) │     │  (remote) │
- *   │              │────▶│          │     │          │
- *   └──────────────┘     └──────────┘     └──────────┘
- *         │                   ▲                 ▲
- *         │                   │                 │
- *         └───────────────────┴─────────────────┘
- *                   heartbeat / task results
- *
- * Components:
- *   1. WorkerNode    — A remote execution node that connects, heartbeats, runs tasks
- *   2. TaskDistributor — Routes tasks to workers based on capacity/affinity/load
- *   3. ClusterOrchestrator — Fleet management, auto-scaling, failover, rebalancing
- *
- * Communication: HTTP/JSON between nodes (pull-based + push notifications)
- * Persistence: SQLite tables for durability across restarts
- * Consistency: Leader-based (coordinator is source of truth)
