RISK-WP-0004-T01: schedule the checks on activity-core

Two activity definitions, in the shape activity-core's own definitions
use. hourly-register-inbox-watch fires only when an unread message waits
for risk-nexus — the inbox is the trigger rather than the clock, because
an unread message is by construction a claim that something may have
moved, and 2026-08-19 proved the register will otherwise grade without
looking. daily-register-check-sweep is the unconditional floor at 07:15.

Both emit an instruction to a session that can exercise judgement, and
both say in their own text that they must never grow the ability to
record an outcome: stamping clean without doing the five questions
produces a 1q rung that is a lie about stability.

RISK-WP-0004 is finished.

@ -79,9 +79,19 @@ is the thing that runs it on schedule. The options, worst to best:
performs the four questions, and records outcomes — escalating to the
operator only what the escalation rule says to escalate.
The third is the only one that survives the operator being busy. It is also a
standing commitment of compute, and this register does not get to arm one on
the operator's behalf. **Awaiting that decision.**
The third was chosen by the operator on 2026-08-20 and is built on
`activity-core`:
Until it is made, checks happen when someone runs `make check`, and every
finding sitting at `instant` is telling the truth about how often that is.
| Definition | When | Fires |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `hourly-register-inbox-watch` | hourly, :05 Berlin | only when an unread message waits for `risk-nexus` |
| `daily-register-check-sweep` | daily, 07:15 Berlin | unconditionally — the floor |
Hourly is the finest granularity worth having, because the ladder's shortest
rung is one hour and anything faster reports work that cannot be due yet.
**What the schedule does and does not do.** It makes sure somebody looks. It
does not grade, close, publish, escalate or record an outcome — those stay with
whoever or whatever performs the check, exercising the judgement above. An
activity that could stamp `clean` on its own would be manufacturing the
stability signal the ladder exists to carry.
