List Scheduler Jobs

GET


            /scheduler/jobs

List every registered scheduler job (both plugin-registered and system jobs like cache-purge, cache-clear, backups). Each job includes its cron expression, enabled flag, last-run timestamp, status, and any error from the last run. Fires `onSchedulerInitialized` so system jobs show up even if no one has touched the scheduler yet this request.
