fix: default cron runMode to "due" instead of "force" (#94270) (#94453)

* fix: default cron runMode to 'due' instead of 'force'

When the runMode parameter is omitted from a cron 'run' action,
the default value now respects schedule guards ('due') instead
of bypassing them ('force'). This prevents unintended execution
of scheduled jobs outside their configured time windows.

Fixes #94270

Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>

* test: update runMode expectations for default 'due' (#94270)

* ci: trigger re-evaluation of real behavior proof

* fix(cron): document due-by-default agent runs

Do not emulate scheduling with exec sleep/process polling.\n\nMain cron => system events for heartbeat. Isolated cron => background task in `openclaw tasks`.\n\nACTIONS:\n- status: scheduler status\n- list: compact job summaries; includeDisabled true includes disabled; use get for full job details; agentId filter auto-filled from session\n- get: one job; needs jobId\n- add: create job; needs job object\n- update: patch job; needs jobId + patch\n- remove: delete job; needs jobId\n- run: run only if due by default; needs jobId; pass runMode=\"force\" to trigger now\n- runs: run history; needs jobId\n- wake: send wake event; needs text, optional mode; defaults the target to the calling session/agent. Pass top-level sessionKey/agentId to wake a different lane.\n\nJOB SCHEMA (for add action):\n{\n \"name\": \"string\",\n \"schedule\": { ... }, // required\n \"payload\": { ... }, // required\n \"delivery\": { ... }, // optional announce for isolated/current/session, webhook for any target\n \"sessionTarget\": \"main\" | \"isolated\" | \"current\" | \"session:<id>\",\n \"enabled\": true | false // default true\n}\n\nSESSION TARGET OPTIONS:\n- \"main\": main session; requires payload.kind=\"systemEvent\"\n- \"isolated\": ephemeral isolated session; requires payload.kind=\"agentTurn\"\n- \"current\": bind current session at creation\n- \"session:<id>\": persistent named session\n\nDEFAULTS:\n- payload.kind=\"systemEvent\" → defaults to \"main\"\n- payload.kind=\"agentTurn\" → defaults to \"isolated\"\nCurrent binding needs sessionTarget=\"current\".\n\nSCHEDULE TYPES (schedule.kind):\n- \"at\": one-shot absolute time\n { \"kind\": \"at\", \"at\": \"<ISO-8601 timestamp>\" }\n- \"every\": recurring interval\n { \"kind\": \"every\", \"everyMs\": <ms>, \"anchorMs\": <optional-ms> }\n- \"cron\": expr in supplied timezone, or Gateway host local timezone when tz omitted\n { \"kind\": \"cron\", \"expr\": \"<cron-expression>\", \"tz\": \"<optional-IANA-timezone>\" }\n Write expr in local wall-clock time; do not convert the requested local time to UTC first.\n tz omitted => Gateway host local timezone, not UTC.\n Example 6pm Shanghai daily: { \"kind\": \"cron\", \"expr\": \"0 18 * * *\", \"tz\": \"Asia/Shanghai\" }\n\nFor \"at\", ISO timestamps without timezone are UTC.\n\nPAYLOAD TYPES (payload.kind):\n- \"systemEvent\": inject text as system event\n { \"kind\": \"systemEvent\", \"text\": \"<message>\" }\n- \"agentTurn\": run agent with prompt; isolated/current/session only\n { \"kind\": \"agentTurn\", \"message\": \"<prompt>\", \"model\": \"<optional>\", \"thinking\": \"<optional>\", \"timeoutSeconds\": <optional, 0=no timeout> }\n\nDELIVERY (top-level):\n { \"mode\": \"none|announce|webhook\", \"channel\": \"<optional>\", \"to\": \"<optional>\", \"threadId\": \"<optional>\", \"bestEffort\": <optional-bool> }\n - isolated agentTurn default when omitted: \"announce\"\n - announce: send to chat channel; isolated/current/session only; optional channel/to\n - threadId: chat thread/topic id\n - webhook: POST finished-run event to delivery.to URL\n - Specific chat/recipient: set announce delivery.channel/to; do not call messaging tools inside run.\n\nCRITICAL CONSTRAINTS:\n- sessionTarget=\"main\" REQUIRES payload.kind=\"systemEvent\"\n- sessionTarget=\"isolated\" | \"current\" | \"session:xxx\" REQUIRES payload.kind=\"agentTurn\"\n- Webhook: delivery.mode=\"webhook\" and delivery.to URL.\nDefault: prefer isolated agentTurn jobs unless the user explicitly wants current-session binding.\n\nRESTRICTED CRON RUNS:\n- Some isolated cron runs get narrow self-cleanup grant: status/list self-only, get/runs current job only, mutation only remove current job.\n\nWAKE MODES (for wake action):\n- \"next-heartbeat\" default: wake next heartbeat\n- \"now\": wake immediately\n\nUse jobId canonical; id accepted compat. contextMessages (0-10) adds previous messages as job context.",
