    • ⏱ scheduler_task changes: task_name is no longer required (filled automatically with function_name if found empty) uuid makes easy to coordinate scheduler_task maintenance (filled automatically if not provided) stop_time has no default (previously was today+1) retry_failed to requeue automatically failed tasks sync_output refreshes automatically the output (nice to report percentages)
    • 👷 workers can be: DISABLED (put to sleep and do nothing if not sending the heartbeat every 30 seconds) TERMINATE (complete the current task and then die) KILL (kill ASAP)
