Cron jobs can now specify a per-job working directory. When set, the job
runs as if launched from that directory: AGENTS.md / CLAUDE.md /
.cursorrules from that dir are injected into the system prompt, and the
terminal / file / code-exec tools use it as their cwd (via TERMINAL_CWD).
When unset, old behaviour is preserved (no project context files, tools
use the scheduler's cwd).
Requested by @bluthcy.
## Mechanism
- cron/jobs.py: create_job / update_job accept 'workdir'; validated to
be an absolute existing directory at create/update time.
- cron/scheduler.py run_job: if job.workdir is set, point TERMINAL_CWD
at it and flip skip_context_files to False before building the agent.
Restored in finally on every exit path.
- cron/scheduler.py tick: workdir jobs run sequentially (outside the
thread pool) because TERMINAL_CWD is process-global. Workdir-less jobs
still run in the parallel pool unchanged.
- tools/cronjob_tools.py + hermes_cli/cron.py + hermes_cli/main.py:
expose 'workdir' via the cronjob tool and 'hermes cron create/edit
--workdir ...'. Empty string on edit clears the field.
## Validation
- tests/cron/test_cron_workdir.py (21 tests): normalize, create, update,
JSON round-trip via cronjob tool, tick partition (workdir jobs run on
the main thread, not the pool), run_job env toggle + restore in finally.
- Full targeted suite (tests/cron/, test_cronjob_tools.py, test_cron.py,
test_config_cwd_bridge.py, test_worktree.py): 314/314 passed.
- Live smoke: hermes cron create --workdir $(pwd) works; relative path
rejected; list shows 'Workdir:'; edit --workdir '' clears.
