How does Cron Monitor decide which tasks to guard?
The Setup Wizard inspects your live cron queue and Cron Monitor’s own run history and pre-selects the tasks most at risk of harmful overlaps — anything that has already overlapped or stalled, tasks whose runtime is long or close to their interval, frequent heavy-sounding jobs (imports, syncs, feeds, queues), and known-heavy families like WooCommerce, Action Scheduler and backups. Each pick shows its reason; the same “Recommended” badges appear on Settings → Overlap protection.
