Cron reports an unwritable store as degraded and notifies the owning home on recovery. Previously store-write failures were mainly log warnings while ticks retried work that could not be durably recorded. The scheduler now keeps an in-memory degraded record with outage time and distinct skipped runs, throttles write probes, and clears state on a successful save. The gateway sends failure/recovery notices to the owning home’s channels, honoring warning opt-outs.
Channel: tagged-release (first stable v0.21.6). Half: both. Date: 2026-10-07.
Operator consequence: On v0.21.6+, inspect cron status and notices for disk-space, read-only-mount or permissions failures. Confirm that the owning home has a usable notification channel and has not opted out. This makes skipped work inspectable; it does not guarantee exactly-once execution.
