Deploy once in Kubernetes. Scans run continuously on schedule — SBOMs, forensic captures, and filesystem diffs archived to S3 automatically.

# Deploy

# Schedule via pod annotations
reel.io/schedule: |
@every 1h | export sbom
@daily | export cbom

Everything in CLI, plus:
Scheduled continuous scanning
