+If your module needs a SQL database for relational queries, scans, or append-only history, add an `init` hook that receives `sql`:
+
+```js

+## Optional: Scheduled Jobs

+
+```js
+const myModule = {
+  name: "mymod",
+  init: async ({ db, sql, env }) => { /* ... */ },

+        await sql.run("DELETE FROM mymod_old WHERE created < ?", oldTimestamp);
+      },
+    },
+  ],
+};
+```
+
+**Important:** Every cron schedule declared in a module MUST also be registered in `wrangler.toml`:
+
+```toml
+[triggers]
+crons = ["0 2 * * *"]  # matches module declaration
+```
+
+For full details on cron syntax, local testing, and worked examples, see [`docs/using-cron.md`](./using-cron.md).

+Manual follow-ups after the D1 + Cron infra rollout (plan: `plans/260415-1010-d1-cron-infra/`).
+
+## Pre-deploy (required before next `npm run deploy`)
+
+- [ ] Create the D1 database:
+  ```bash
+  npx wrangler d1 create miti99bot-db
+  ```
+  Copy the returned UUID.
+
+- [ ] Replace `REPLACE_ME_D1_UUID` in `wrangler.toml` (`[[d1_databases]]` → `database_id`) with the real UUID.

+- [ ] Commit `wrangler.toml` with the real UUID (the ID is not a secret).
+
+## First deploy verification
+
+- [ ] Run `npm run db:migrate -- --dry-run` — confirm it lists `src/modules/trading/migrations/0001_trades.sql` as pending.
+
+- [ ] Run `npm run deploy` — chain is `wrangler deploy` → `npm run db:migrate` → `npm run register`.
+
+- [ ] Verify in Cloudflare dashboard:
+  - D1 database `miti99bot-db` shows `trading_trades` + `_migrations` tables
+  - Worker shows a cron trigger `0 17 * * *`
+
+## Post-deploy smoke tests
+
+- [ ] Send `/buy VNM 10 80000` (or whatever the real buy syntax is) via Telegram, then `/history` — expect 1 row.

+
+## Nice-to-have (not blocking)
+
+- [ ] End-to-end test of `wrangler dev --test-scheduled` documented with real output snippet in `docs/using-cron.md`.
+
+- [ ] Decide on migration rollback story (currently forward-only). Either document "write a new migration to undo" explicitly, or add a `down/` convention.
+
+- [ ] Tune `trim-trades` schedule if 17:00 UTC conflicts with anything — currently chosen as ~00:00 ICT.

+# Using Cron (Scheduled Jobs)
+
+Cron allows modules to run scheduled tasks at fixed intervals. Use crons for cleanup (purge old data), maintenance (recompute stats), or periodic notifications.
+
+## Declaring Crons
+
+In your module's default export, add a `crons` array:
+
+```js
+export default {
+  name: "mymod",
+  init: async ({ db, sql, env }) => { /* ... */ },
+  commands: [ /* ... */ ],
+  crons: [
+    {
+      schedule: "0 17 * * *",      // 5 PM UTC daily
+      name: "cleanup",             // human-readable identifier
+      handler: async (event, ctx) => {
+        // event.cron = "0 17 * * *"
+        // event.scheduledTime = timestamp (ms)
+        // ctx = { db, sql, env } (same as module init)
+      },
+    },
+  ],
+};
+```
+
+**Handler signature:**
+
+```js
+async (event, { db, sql, env }) => {
+  // event.cron — the schedule string that fired
+  // event.scheduledTime — Unix timestamp (ms)
+  // db — namespaced KV store (same as init)
+  // sql — namespaced D1 store (same as init), null if not bound
+  // env — raw worker environment
+}
+```
+
+## Cron Expression Syntax
+
+Standard 5-field cron format (minute, hour, day-of-month, month, day-of-week):
+
+```
+minute  hour  day-of-month  month  day-of-week
+  0-59   0-23    1-31       1-12     0-6 (0=Sunday)
+
+"0 17 * * *"   — 5 PM UTC daily
+"*/5 * * * *"  — every 5 minutes
+"0 0 1 * *"    — midnight on the 1st of each month
+"0 9 * * 1"    — 9 AM UTC every Monday
+"30 2 * * *"   — 2:30 AM UTC daily
+```
+
+See Cloudflare's [cron expression docs](https://developers.cloudflare.com/workers/configuration/cron-triggers/) for full syntax.
+
+## Registering in wrangler.toml
+
+**Important:** Crons declared in the module MUST also be listed in `wrangler.toml`. This is because Cloudflare needs to know what schedules to fire at deploy time.
+
+Edit `wrangler.toml`:
+
+```toml
+[triggers]
+crons = ["0 17 * * *", "0 0 * * *", "*/5 * * * *"]
+```
+
+Both the module contract and the `[triggers] crons` array must list the same schedules. If a schedule is in the module but not in `wrangler.toml`, Cloudflare won't fire it. If it's in `wrangler.toml` but not in any module, the worker won't know what to do with it.
+
+**Multiple modules can share a schedule** — all matching handlers will fire (fan-out). Each module must declare its own `crons` entry; the registry validates them at load time.
+
+## Handler Details
+
+### Error Isolation
+
+If one handler fails, other handlers still run. Each handler is wrapped in try/catch:
+
+```js
+// In cron-dispatcher.js
+for (const entry of matching) {
+  ctx.waitUntil(
+    (async () => {
+      try {
+        await entry.handler(event, handlerCtx);
+      } catch (err) {
+        console.error(`[cron] handler failed:`, err);
+      }
+    })(),
+  );
+}
+```
+
+Errors are logged to the Workers console but don't crash the dispatch loop.
+
+### Execution Time Limits
+
+Cloudflare cron tasks have a **15-minute wall-clock limit**. Operations exceeding this timeout are killed. For large data operations:
+
+- Batch in chunks (e.g., delete 1000 rows at a time, looping)
+- Use pagination to avoid loading entire datasets into memory
+- Monitor execution time and add logging
+
+### Context Availability
+
+Cron handlers run in the same Worker runtime as HTTP handlers, so they have access to:
+
+- `db` — the module's namespaced KV store (read/write)
+- `sql` — the module's namespaced D1 store (read/write), or null if not configured
+- `env` — all Worker environment bindings (secrets, etc.)
+
+### Return Value
+
+Handlers should return `Promise<void>`. The runtime ignores return values.
+
+## Local Testing
+
+Use the local `wrangler dev` server to simulate cron triggers:
+
+```bash
+npm run dev
+```
+
+In another terminal, send a simulated cron request:
+
+```bash
+# Trigger the 5 PM daily cron
+curl "http://localhost:8787/__scheduled?cron=0+17+*+*+*"
+
+# URL-encode the cron string (spaces → +)
+```
+
+The Worker responds with `200` and logs handler output to the dev server console.
+
+### Simulating Multiple Crons
+
+If you have several crons with different schedules, test each by passing the exact schedule string:
+
+```bash
+curl "http://localhost:8787/__scheduled?cron=*/5+*+*+*+*"  # every 5 min
+curl "http://localhost:8787/__scheduled?cron=0+0+1+*+*"   # monthly
+```
+
+## Worked Example: Trade Retention
+
+The trading module uses a daily cron at `0 17 * * *` (5 PM UTC) to trim old trades:
+
+**Module declaration (src/modules/trading/index.js):**
+
+```js
+crons: [
+  {
+    schedule: "0 17 * * *",
+    name: "trim-trades",
+    handler: (event, ctx) => trimTradesHandler(event, ctx),
+  },
+],
+```
+
+**wrangler.toml:**
+
+```toml
+[triggers]
+crons = ["0 17 * * *"]
+```
+
+**Handler (src/modules/trading/retention.js):**
+
+```js
+/**
+ * Delete trades older than 90 days.
+ */
+export async function trimTradesHandler(event, { sql }) {
+  if (!sql) return;  // database not configured
+
+  const ninetyDaysAgoMs = Date.now() - 90 * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000;
+
+  const result = await sql.run(
+    "DELETE FROM trading_trades WHERE ts < ?",
+    ninetyDaysAgoMs
+  );
+
+  console.log(`[cron] trim-trades: deleted ${result.changes} old trades`);
+}
+```
+
+**wrangler.toml:**
+
+```toml
+[triggers]
+crons = ["0 17 * * *"]
+```
+
+At 5 PM UTC every day, Cloudflare fires the `0 17 * * *` cron. The Worker loads the registry, finds the trading module's handler, executes `trimTradesHandler`, and logs the number of deleted rows.
+
+## Worked Example: Stats Recalculation
+
+Imagine a leaderboard module that caches top-10 stats:
+
+```js
+export default {
+  name: "leaderboard",
+  init: async ({ db, sql }) => {
+    // ...
+  },
+  crons: [
+    {
+      schedule: "0 12 * * *",  // noon UTC daily
+      name: "refresh-stats",
+      handler: async (event, { sql, db }) => {
+        if (!sql) return;
+
+        // Recompute aggregate stats from raw data
+        const topTen = await sql.all(
+          `SELECT user_id, SUM(score) as total_score
+           FROM leaderboard_plays
+           GROUP BY user_id
+           ORDER BY total_score DESC
+           LIMIT 10`
+        );
+
+        // Cache in KV for fast /leaderboard command response
+        await db.putJSON("cached_top_10", topTen);
+        console.log(`[cron] refresh-stats: updated top 10`);
+      },
+    },
+  ],
+};
+```
+
+Every day at noon, the leaderboard updates its cached stats without waiting for a user request.
+
+## Crons and Cold Starts
+
+Crons execute on a fresh Worker instance (potential cold start). Module `init` hooks run before the first handler, so cron handlers can safely assume initialization is complete.
+
+If `init` throws, the cron fires anyway but has `sql` and `db` in a half-initialized state. Handle this gracefully:
+
+```js
+handler: async (event, { sql, db }) => {
+  if (!sql) {
+    console.warn("sql store not available, skipping");
+    return;
+  }
+  // proceed with confidence
+}
+```
+
+## Adding a New Cron
+
+1. **Declare in module:**
+   ```js
+   crons: [
+     { schedule: "0 3 * * *", name: "my-cron", handler: myHandler }
+   ],
+   ```
+
+2. **Add to wrangler.toml:**
+   ```toml
+   [triggers]
+   crons = ["0 3 * * *", "0 17 * * *"]  # keep existing schedules
+   ```
+
+3. **Deploy:**
+   ```bash
+   npm run deploy
+   ```
+
+4. **Test locally:**
+   ```bash
+   npm run dev
+   # in another terminal:
+   curl "http://localhost:8787/__scheduled?cron=0+3+*+*+*"
+   ```
+
+## Monitoring Crons
+
+Cron execution is logged to the Cloudflare Workers console. Check the tail:
+
+```bash
+npx wrangler tail
+```
+
+Look for `[cron]` prefixed log lines to see which crons ran and what they did.

+# Using D1 (SQL Database)
+
+D1 is Cloudflare's serverless SQL database. Use it when your module needs to query structured data, perform scans, or maintain append-only history. For simple key → JSON blobs or per-user state, KV is lighter and faster.
+
+## When to Choose D1 vs KV
+
+| Use Case | D1 | KV |
+|----------|----|----|
+| Simple key → JSON state | — | ✓ |
+| Per-user blob (config, stats) | — | ✓ |
+| Relational queries (JOIN, GROUP BY) | ✓ | — |
+| Scans (all users' records, filtered) | ✓ | — |
+| Leaderboards, sorted aggregates | ✓ | — |
+| Append-only history/audit log | ✓ | — |
+| Exact row counts with WHERE | ✓ | — |
+
+The trading module uses D1 for `trading_trades` (append-only history). Each `/trade_buy` and `/trade_sell` writes a row; `/history` scans the last N rows per user.
+
+## Accessing SQL in a Module
+
+In your module's `init`, receive `sql` (alongside `db` for KV):
+
+```js
+/** @type {import("../../db/sql-store-interface.js").SqlStore | null} */
+let sql = null;
+
+const myModule = {
+  name: "mymod",
+  init: async ({ db, sql: sqlStore, env }) => {
+    sql = sqlStore;  // cache for handlers
+  },
+  commands: [
+    {
+      name: "myquery",
+      visibility: "public",
+      description: "Query the database",
+      handler: async (ctx) => {
+        if (!sql) {
+          await ctx.reply("Database not configured");
+          return;
+        }
+        const rows = await sql.all("SELECT * FROM mymod_items LIMIT 10");

+**Important:** `sql` is `null` when `env.DB` is not bound (e.g., in tests without a fake D1 setup). Always guard:
+
+```js
+if (!sql) {
+  // handle gracefully — module still works, just without persistence
+}
+```
+
+## Table Naming Convention
+
+All tables must follow the pattern `{moduleName}_{table}`:
+
+- `trading_trades` — trading module's trades table
+- `mymod_items` — mymod's items table
+- `mymod_leaderboard` — mymod's leaderboard table
+
+Enforce this by convention in code review. The `sql.tablePrefix` property is available for dynamic table names:
+
+```js
+const tableName = `${sql.tablePrefix}items`;  // = "mymod_items"
+await sql.all(`SELECT * FROM ${tableName}`);
+```
+
+## Writing Migrations
+
+Migrations live in `src/modules/<name>/migrations/NNNN_descriptive.sql`. Files are sorted lexically and applied in order (one-way only; no down migrations).
+
+**Naming:** Use a 4-digit numeric prefix, then a descriptive name:
+
+```
+src/modules/trading/migrations/
+├── 0001_trades.sql      # first migration
+├── 0002_add_fees.sql    # second migration (optional)
+└── 0003_...
+```
+
+**Example migration:**
+
+```sql
+-- src/modules/mymod/migrations/0001_items.sql
+CREATE TABLE mymod_items (
+  id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT,
+  user_id INTEGER NOT NULL,
+  name TEXT NOT NULL,
+  created_at INTEGER NOT NULL
+);
+CREATE INDEX idx_mymod_items_user ON mymod_items(user_id);
+```
+
+Key points:
+- One-way only — migrations never roll back.
+- Create indexes for columns you'll filter/sort by.
+- Use `user_id` (snake_case in SQL), not `userId`.
+- Reference other tables with full names: `other_module_items`.
+
+The migration runner (`scripts/migrate.js`) tracks applied migrations in a `_migrations` table and skips any that have already run.
+
+## SQL API Reference
+
+The `SqlStore` provides these methods. All accept parameterized bindings (? placeholders):
+
+### `run(query, ...binds)`
+Execute INSERT / UPDATE / DELETE / CREATE. Returns `{ changes, last_row_id }`.
+
+```js
+const result = await sql.run(
+  "INSERT INTO mymod_items (user_id, name) VALUES (?, ?)",
+  userId,
+  "Widget"
+);
+console.log(result.last_row_id);  // newly inserted row ID
+```
+
+### `all(query, ...binds)`
+Execute SELECT, return all rows as plain objects.
+
+```js
+const items = await sql.all(
+  "SELECT * FROM mymod_items WHERE user_id = ?",
+  userId
+);
+// items = [{ id: 1, user_id: 123, name: "Widget", created_at: 1234567 }, ...]
+```
+
+### `first(query, ...binds)`
+Execute SELECT, return first row or `null` if no match.
+
+```js
+const item = await sql.first(
+  "SELECT * FROM mymod_items WHERE id = ?",
+  itemId
+);
+if (!item) {
+  // not found
+}
+```
+
+### `prepare(query, ...binds)`
+Advanced: return a D1 prepared statement for use with `.batch()`.
+
+```js
+const stmt = sql.prepare("INSERT INTO mymod_items (user_id, name) VALUES (?, ?)");
+const batch = [
+  stmt.bind(userId1, "Item1"),
+  stmt.bind(userId2, "Item2"),
+];
+await sql.batch(batch);
+```
+
+### `batch(statements)`
+Execute multiple prepared statements in a single round-trip.
+
+```js
+const stmt = sql.prepare("INSERT INTO mymod_items (user_id, name) VALUES (?, ?)");
+const results = await sql.batch([
+  stmt.bind(userId1, "Item1"),
+  stmt.bind(userId2, "Item2"),
+  stmt.bind(userId3, "Item3"),
+]);
+```
+
+## Running Migrations
+
+### Production
+
+```bash
+npm run db:migrate
+```
+
+This walks `src/modules/*/migrations/*.sql` (sorted), checks which have already run (tracked in `_migrations` table), and applies only new ones via `wrangler d1 execute --remote`.
+
+### Local Dev
+
+```bash
+npm run db:migrate -- --local
+```
+
+Applies migrations to your local D1 binding in `.dev.vars`.
+
+### Preview (Dry Run)
+
+```bash
+npm run db:migrate -- --dry-run
+```
+
+Prints the migration plan without executing anything. Useful before a production deploy.
+
+## Testing with Fake D1
+
+For hermetic unit tests without a real D1 binding, use `tests/fakes/fake-d1.js`. It's a minimal in-memory SQL implementation that covers common patterns:
+
+```js
+import { describe, it, expect, beforeEach, vi } from "vitest";
+import { FakeD1 } from "../../fakes/fake-d1.js";
+
+describe("trading trades", () => {
+  let sql;
+
+  beforeEach(async () => {
+    const fakeDb = new FakeD1();
+    // setup
+    await fakeDb.run(
+      "CREATE TABLE trading_trades (id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, user_id INTEGER, qty INTEGER)"
+    );
+    sql = fakeDb;
+  });
+
+  it("inserts and retrieves trades", async () => {
+    await sql.run(
+      "INSERT INTO trading_trades (user_id, qty) VALUES (?, ?)",
+      123,
+      10
+    );
+    const rows = await sql.all(
+      "SELECT qty FROM trading_trades WHERE user_id = ?",
+      123
+    );
+    expect(rows).toEqual([{ qty: 10 }]);
+  });
+});
+```
+
+Note: `FakeD1` supports a subset of SQL features needed for current modules. Extend it in `tests/fakes/fake-d1.js` if you need additional syntax (CTEs, window functions, etc.).
+
+## First-Time D1 Setup
+
+If your deployment environment doesn't have a D1 database yet:
+
+```bash
+npx wrangler d1 create miti99bot-db
+```
+
+Copy the database ID from the output, then add it to `wrangler.toml`:
+
+```toml
+[[d1_databases]]
+binding = "DB"
+database_name = "miti99bot-db"
+database_id = "<paste-id-here>"
+```
+
+Then run migrations:
+
+```bash
+npm run db:migrate
+```
+
+The `_migrations` table is created automatically. After that, new migrations apply on every deploy.
+
+## Worked Example: Simple Counter
+
+**Migration:**
+
+```sql
+-- src/modules/counter/migrations/0001_counters.sql
+CREATE TABLE counter_state (
+  id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY CHECK (id = 1),
+  count INTEGER NOT NULL DEFAULT 0
+);
+INSERT INTO counter_state (count) VALUES (0);
+```
+
+**Module:**
+
+```js
+import { createCounterHandler } from "./handler.js";
+
+/** @type {import("../../db/sql-store-interface.js").SqlStore | null} */
+let sql = null;
+
+export default {
+  name: "counter",
+  init: async ({ sql: sqlStore }) => {
+    sql = sqlStore;
+  },
+  commands: [
+    {
+      name: "count",
+      visibility: "public",
+      description: "Increment global counter",
+      handler: (ctx) => createCounterHandler(sql)(ctx),
+    },
+  ],
+};
+```
+
+**Handler:**
+
+```js
+export function createCounterHandler(sql) {
+  return async (ctx) => {
+    if (!sql) {
+      await ctx.reply("Database not configured");
+      return;
+    }
+
+    // increment
+    await sql.run("UPDATE counter_state SET count = count + 1 WHERE id = 1");
+
+    // read current
+    const row = await sql.first("SELECT count FROM counter_state WHERE id = 1");
+    await ctx.reply(`Counter: ${row.count}`);
+  };
+}
+```
+
+Run `/count` multiple times and watch the counter increment. The count persists across restarts because it's stored in D1.
