Under the hood

Scheduled cron tasks and claude mcp serve now wait for policy limits to finish loading before starting

What

The worker that runs scheduled (cron) tasks now waits for awaitPolicyLimitsColdStart to complete before it starts dispatching any scheduled tasks, and registers a stopPolicyLimits cleanup step if the operation is aborted partway through. The claude mcp serve command does the same: it now waits for policy limits to finish loading before running its usual setup, sandbox check, and server startup.

Why

Waiting for policy limits to be ready before running scheduled tasks or starting an MCP server should prevent those tasks from running briefly without the correct limits in place.
