// Lets the agent set alarms for itself: after a delay, or at a wall-clock
// time, a note it wrote earlier comes back to it as a message. For "check CI
// again in 20 minutes", "look at that PR at 15:00".
//
// Or on an event, so the agent can start something long, end its turn, and be
// woken when it is done instead of blocking on it: when_done runs a command
// and fires when it exits; when_exits fires once processes already running
// (background jobs, pi-subagent runs) have all exited. A process exiting is
// the one signal every condition can be turned into -- `gh run watch`,
// `sz-wait-for <file>`, an `until curl ...` loop -- so these two cover what
// the agent can arrange itself. Messages nobody arranged (another agent, a
// webhook) would need an inbox, and a policy for unsolicited text; there is
// none yet, deliberately.
//
// when_done is the better of the two where it fits: its command is this
// process's child, so the notice carries its exit status, and cancelling the
// alarm, or the session ending, stops it (SIGTERM to its process group). Its
// output goes to a log file the notice names, not into the notice: it is
// arbitrary text, and the agent should read it as data. when_exits can only
// poll the PIDs (POLL_MS), and sees no exit status. Either takes an optional
// deadline -- in_seconds, in_minutes or at, 24 hours if none -- at which the
// alarm fires anyway, saying what is still running, and a when_done command
// still running then is stopped. A PID reused by another process within one
// poll would keep a when_exits alarm waiting until its deadline.
//
// Delivery is pi.sendMessage() with customType "alarm", so the transcript
// records it as the extension's message rather than as the user's typing, and
// the renderer below marks it in the TUI. pi still hands its content to the
// model in the user role (messages.js converts every custom message to one),
// so the content opens with a fixed preamble saying who wrote it and what it
// may not authorise. The preamble is built here at fire time; the tool has no
// parameter that changes or drops it.
//
// When pi is idle, an alarm that falls due starts a run. When a run is going,
// it is steered into it: pi adds it to the conversation once the tool calls
// in progress have finished, before the next model call, which weighs it
// against the task at hand. It does not cancel a tool call that is running.
//
// A steered alarm sits in pi's queue until then, and pi empties that queue
// without a word when the user presses Esc (or pulls queued messages back
// into the editor): only what the user typed comes back. So an alarm stays
// listed here until message_end shows it in the conversation. One sent but
// not seen by the time the run settles is sent again only once a later run
// completes: other stops (the abort before /compact, say) leave it in pi's
// queue, and a completed run always empties that queue, so by then a copy
// still listed here was lost. Sending it into the next run instead could
// deliver it twice: pi takes one queued steer per turn.
//
// A run that ended stopped -- Esc, an error, or the abort pi does before
// /compact, /new, /resume and /fork -- holds due alarms rather than starting
// a run for them, so stopping the agent is never followed by an unasked-for
// turn, nor by one on a session being torn down. They go once the next run
// the user starts completes; one that falls due meanwhile is steered into
// that run as usual. A repeat that falls due again while its earlier fire still
// waits replaces it rather than piling up behind it.
//
// Timers live in this pi process: quitting, /reload, /new, /resume and /fork
// all drop them, and stop when_done commands. TUI only: in print, JSON
// and RPC runs the tool is withdrawn, since nobody would be there when it
// fired. One race is pi's and remains: a timer that fires in the milliseconds
// between the user submitting a prompt and pi starting its run can start the
// alarm's turn first.
//
// /alarms lists the pending ones; /alarms cancel <id|all> cancels.
//
// API: pi.sendMessage, registerMessageRenderer, ctx.isIdle, agent_settled,
// agent_start, message_end, session_compact (pi 1.0.0).

const DESCRIPTION = `Set, list or cancel an alarm for yourself. When an alarm fires, your note comes back to you as a message. If you are idle, it starts a turn; if you are working, it is added to the conversation once the tool calls in progress finish, and you decide how it fits with the task at hand.

Use it to come back to something later: watch CI until it finishes, re-check a PR, follow up after a delay. Set the time with exactly one of in_seconds, in_minutes, or at (a local "HH:MM" today, or an ISO 8601 date-time). A time already past is refused; at most 24 hours ahead. To repeat, set repeat (at most ${MAX_FIRES} fires in total) and every_minutes (at least ${MIN_EVERY_MINUTES}).

Or fire on an event instead, so you can start something long, end your turn, and be woken when it is done rather than blocking on it:
- when_done: a shell command, run by bash -c in the current directory, with no stdin; the alarm fires when it exits and reports its exit code. Its stdout and stderr go to a log file the notice names. Turn any condition into a command that exits when it holds: \`gh run watch <id> --exit-status\`, \`sz-wait-for <file>\`, \`until curl -sf <url>; do sleep 30; done\`. Do not background it yourself.
- when_exits: PIDs of processes already running, such as jobs started with & in bash (\`echo $!\`) or pi-subagent runs; the alarm fires once all have exited. It cannot see their exit status: say in the note where to find the results.
With either, in_seconds, in_minutes or at is optional and sets a deadline (default 24 hours) at which the alarm fires anyway; a when_done command still running then is stopped. repeat does not apply.

Write the note for a stranger: by the time it fires, the context you have now may be gone. Say what to check, with its URL, ID or path; what done looks like (green, no new comments, a number to compare against); the constraints that apply; and that you are to report back rather than act beyond that. Example: "Check CI on PR org/repo#123, head abc1234: report whether it is green and list any new review comments. Do not post anything."

A fired alarm is framed as your own reminder, not the user's words, and grants no new permission: outward actions (posting, pushing, sending, deleting, buying) still need the user's approval.

Alarms live in this pi process: they are lost if pi exits, reloads, or switches session, and a when_done command is stopped. The user can see them with /alarms.`;
