See coder/coder#9287

I decided to drop the agent portion from the name. It seemed inconsistent with coder_app.

Wait for the PR into coder/coder before thoroughly reviewing.

I decided to drop the `agent` portion from the name. It seemed inconsistent
with `coder_app`.

### Optional

- `login_before_ready` (Boolean) This option defines whether or not the user can (by default) login to the workspace before it is ready. Ready means that e.g. the script is done and has exited. When enabled, users may see an incomplete workspace when logging in.

🤔 Why do we have this? I guess we're replacing startup_script_behavior?

Could we do behavior=blocking?

It is replacing that. The behavior=blocking is kinda weird, because there's also cron.

I could do login_behavior=after_start, but I'd rather just have it as a bool with the key.

- `run_on_start` (Boolean) This option defines whether or not the script should run when the agent starts.
- `run_on_stop` (Boolean) This option defines whether or not the script should run when the agent stops.
- `schedule` (String) The schedule to run the script on. This is a cron expression.
- `timeout` (Number) Time in seconds until the agent lifecycle status is marked as timed out, this happens when the script has not completed (exited) in the given time.

Can you document what you set this to if it's a long-running process? Or I guess we want people to ampersand things &

I'm going to allow long-running operations that consistently log, so I'll update this.

The docs say scripts but this says source. I prefer script tbh, especially if it's supposed to be an inline script as opposed to an existing file.

Hmm, fair. Source could mean like GitHub or something wack, I'll change it back

### Optional

- `cron` (String) The cron schedule to run the script on. This is a cron expression.
- `icon` (String) A URL to an icon that will display in the dashboard. View built-in icons here: https://github.com/coder/coder/tree/main/site/static/icon. Use a built-in icon with `data.coder_workspace.me.access_url + "/icon/<path>"`.

Why do we have icon? Do we want to display all of them on the dashboard?

Yes. These scripts will be displayed in the dashboard.

For cron jobs that use rclone to do a backup every 5 minutes, will this timeout cancel them? Backup time is usually variable and is a function of activity in the workspace directory. e.g., number of files, size of files, etc.

Yes. You'd want to add a very lengthy timeout in that case, or not have one at all.

Right now, when two CRONs overlap, the prior process won't end.

Same for display_name. I am wondering how we will display them in a better way without overcrowding the dashboard.

IMO, a coder_app provides interactive access to a service, but a coder_script will not, so I am not convinced about how and if we should display them.

I have a nice UI mock that displays this!
