Inspired by Claude Code's /loop (repeat a prompt within a CLI session for quick polling).

What: Meta-command :every <interval> "<prompt>" schedules a prompt to be re-injected on a timer. Implementation: readline poll-with-timeout loop checks a small in-process queue between user inputs and on-the-fly during long broker calls (cancellable).

> :every 5min "check journalctl -u nginx for errors and report"
[scheduled bg-prompt #3, every 5m]

:every list / :every cancel <id> to manage.

Why: "Watch this thing" workflows without spawning a separate aish process. Pairs naturally with Norris mode for autonomous monitoring shifts.

Where it lands: Phase 5+ (cost-aware once multi-model routing is in — recurring prompts should default to fast preset). Touches repl.lua event loop.
