ak content queue run-pending

Publish every queued post whose ScheduledAt is in the past or now. Idempotent: re-running will not double-publish entries already marked published. An advisory lockfile prevents concurrent double-publish from two processes.

Who it's for: Both: automated cron/timer callers (--json) and manual one-shot execution.

When to use it: Use in a cron job or call manually to flush due posts without starting the daemon.

What changes on disk: Reads and writes ~/.agentkit/content/queue.json atomically. Creates a transient lock file alongside the queue while running.
