What
A goal with tasks that are waiting can schedule a check-in that fires when the session is idle, then re-arms itself with the delay doubled each time up to a ceiling. It re-arms after failures too, and a failed fire is reported as a goal_checkin fire failure.
Details
The timer only exists when a check-in interval is configured; an interval of 0 turns it off entirely. Nothing in this build sets that value, so where it comes from is decided elsewhere.
Evidence
goal_checkin
Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
