How it runs
The Supply Bot owns this as part of its theme. On its cadence it reads open POs past ETA, produces chaser emails from the Bot's address, and stops. It writes one heartbeat line to the ops log so a missed run shows up in the morning message.
The risk to watch
Bounded count per day; suppliers are people.
