ak content schedule daemon

Poll the scheduled-post queue every --poll-interval seconds and publish any due posts via their channel adapter. Runs until SIGINT/SIGTERM. An advisory lockfile prevents two daemons from double-publishing the same post.

Who it's for: Power devs automating timed content delivery.

When to use it: Start once as a background service or systemd unit.

What changes on disk: Reads/writes ~/.agentkit/content/queue.json on each tick. Holds a transient lock file during each publish window.
