Cron now invokes the installed Jobman module through a stable bash → Jobman → engine process chain. MojoSec can prove scheduled firewall work after deployments without treating the legitimate wrapper re-exec sequence as unexplained privileged activity. No migrations or configuration changes are required.

### Fixed

- API deploys now install and preflight a direct system-Python Jobman cron command, giving the cron shell, Jobman, and the restarted engine distinct Audit identities.
- MojoSec matches that same generated command, so fully proven firewall broker work stays local instead of flooding the central security stream.

### Upgrade notes

- Deploy normally. The API deployment replaces the jobs cron entry, retires the old engine and scheduler, and lets the next cron tick start the replacements.
