Autopilot: Scheduled execution during business hours

[madhavcodez]

Feature

The autopilot orchestrator exists and works when triggered manually (POST /autopilot/run), but scheduled automatic execution is not yet wired up.

Current State

• ✅ run_autopilot_cycle() runs full pipeline: ingest → score → research → create campaigns
• ✅ Manual trigger via API and dashboard "Run Autopilot" button
• ✅ APScheduler is initialized in the backend lifespan
• ❌ Autopilot job not scheduled on the cron (currently only ingest + scoring jobs exist)
• ❌ No business hours enforcement for automatic execution
• ❌ No concurrency guard for overlapping cycles
• ❌ No email/call execution in autopilot (only creates campaigns, doesn't send)

Desired Behavior

Every day at 9 AM and 3 PM (Pacific):
  1. Ingest new jobs from all sources
  2. Score all unscored matches (no cap)
  3. Deep research top 5 unresearched matches
  4. Auto-create campaigns for discovered contacts
  5. Generate outreach packages (call + email + LinkedIn)
  6. Execute pending emails
  7. Execute pending calls (if Twilio webhook configured)

Implementation

Update backend/app/services/scheduler.py:

scheduler.add_job(
    _run_autopilot, "cron",
    hour="9,15", minute=0,
    timezone="America/Los_Angeles",
    id="autopilot_job"
)
