-"""Worker entrypoint: runs trigger checker + future background jobs.
+"""Worker entrypoint.
 
-Waits for the database (and required tables) to be ready before starting
-the background loops. This prevents the worker from crashing when the
-backend hasn't finished running `init_db()` yet (typical docker-compose
-race condition where both services start in parallel).
+Historically this ran a trigger-polling loop. Triggers now fire in-process
+inside the orchestrator when in-game time changes (see app.core.triggers),
+so the worker has nothing to do at the moment. We keep the container running
+as a placeholder for future background jobs (RAG re-indexer, summary
+compactor, etc.).
+
+If you add a background job, register it in `asyncio.gather(...)` below.
