contrib: devbox-aware scheduler templates (host-side, docker exec)
On hosts running a long-lived opencode-devbox (or equivalent)
container, mempalace-session lives INSIDE the container, not on
the host. The existing contrib/* templates install a scheduler on
the machine that runs the tool; for the devbox case the scheduler
has to live on the host and reach into the container via
'docker exec'. This was noted in passing in contrib/README.md but
no templates were actually shipped for it.
Adds parallel *-devbox templates for systemd and cron:
contrib/systemd/mempalace-session-devbox.service
- Type=oneshot, same 2h TimeoutStartSec + low Nice as the direct
variant.
- Two Environment knobs (CONTAINER, CONTAINER_USER) default to
opencode-devbox/developer, overrideable via
'systemctl --user edit'.
- ExecCondition checks 'docker ps --filter name= --filter
status=running' so the unit no-ops cleanly when the container
is currently down. systemd reports this as a successful
'condition failed' state — no alert noise across dev cycles
of teardown/rebuild.
- ExecStart is plain /usr/bin/docker exec with no shell; systemd
does the env-var expansion.
- Stdout/stderr go to journalctl --user -u <unit> (nothing to
redirect, since docker exec surfaces container output to the
calling process).
contrib/systemd/mempalace-session-devbox.timer
- Mon 03:00 Persistent=true RandomizedDelaySec=30m, mirrors the
direct timer.
contrib/cron/mempalace-session-devbox.cron
- Equivalent shell-wrapped form for hosts using cron instead of
systemd. 'docker ps | grep -q .' short-circuits if the container
isn't running. Log goes to $HOME/.cache/mempalace-session/
cron-devbox.log on the HOST (outside the container) so it's
inspectable without dropping into the devbox.
contrib/README.md:
- Replaces the two-paragraph 'Running inside a container' note
with a proper section: preconditions, install recipes for both
the systemd and cron devbox variants, verify/uninstall commands,
customization via 'systemctl --user edit', behaviour when the
container is down.
- Chooser table gains a dedicated row pointing devbox users at
the *-devbox templates, and mentions the systemd vs cron pick
for that case.
- New 'When to pick devbox variants vs direct ones' table covers
the rare both-installed case (host mempalace AND in-container
mempalace see separate palaces — they don't cross-pollinate).
Top-level README.md 'Keeping it fresh' subsection gains a quick-start
block for the devbox variant alongside the existing Linux/macOS
quick-starts.
Tested: all four systemd units parse cleanly as INI via
configparser (sections + key=value pairs); validated file sizes
and locations match the layout described in docs. Runtime
validation (systemctl --user enable; actual docker exec) requires
a host with docker + an opencode-devbox container up — deferred
to the user's Mac/Linux boxes.

# Sample crontab entry for mempalace-session inside a long-running
|
||||
# opencode-devbox container, scheduled from the DOCKER HOST (not inside
|
||||
# the container — containers typically don't run cron).
|
||||
#
|
||||
# Host-side cron runs `docker exec` against the running container once a
|
||||
# week. Requires:
|
||||
# - Container is long-lived (compose up, restart: unless-stopped, etc.)
|
||||
# - User running cron has rights to talk to the docker socket
|
||||
# (usually means being in the `docker` group, or on macOS having
|
||||
# Docker Desktop running for the current login session)
|
||||
# - `mempalace-session` is already installed inside the container
|
||||
# (opencode-devbox bakes it in via cli_utils → mempalace-toolkit)
|
||||
#
|
||||
# Install:
|
||||
# # Replace CONTAINER / USER / HOST_USER to match your setup, then:
|
||||
# (crontab -l 2>/dev/null; cat contrib/cron/mempalace-session-devbox.cron) | crontab -
|
||||
#
|
||||
# Adjust CONTAINER and USER below before installing.
|
||||
#
|
||||
# Design notes:
|
||||
# - `docker ps --filter name=... --filter status=running` makes the job a
|
||||
# no-op if the container is down, so the timer is harmless on machines
|
||||
# where the devbox is currently stopped. No mail/warning/noise.
|
||||
# - Exec runs as `developer` (the opencode-devbox user). Change `-u`
|
||||
# if you named your user something else.
|
||||
# - Output is captured in a log under the HOST user's home, not inside
|
||||
# the container — so you can inspect it from outside.
