## Bugfixes

- **`skipIfNoWorker` now ignores stale workers**: `getForQueue()` was returning ALL registered workers regardless of heartbeat status. When a client disconnected without clean TCP close (e.g., network issues between WSL and remote VPS), the worker remained registered as "stale" for up to 90 seconds. During this window, `skipIfNoWorker` would find the stale worker and push cron jobs. Now only workers with a recent heartbeat (within `WORKER_TIMEOUT_MS`, default 30s) are counted (fixes #73).
