Add a new "Seqera Intelligent Compute" section to the AWS Cloud compute environment docs (cloud + enterprise) describing the optional capability that offloads Nextflow tasks to a Seqera-managed Amazon ECS cluster, and the additional IAM policy required to enable it. The policy mirrors the seqera-sched compute policy: every action that AWS allows to be scoped by ARN is restricted to the seqera-sched-* prefix, with the remaining Resource "*" entries reserved for AWS APIs that don't support resource-level permissions.
✅ Deploy Preview for seqera-docs ready!

The scheduler never calls DeleteSecurityGroup. The security group it manages has a static name (seqera-sched-ecs) shared across clusters in the region and is not torn down per-cluster.

Has this been aligned to https://github.com/seqeralabs/sched/pull/344? there has been recent changes |

It's not aligned with the change in the permission scoping and reshuffling of the permissions around statements, only has the one of the missing permissions as it was raised as missing in a previous comment here #1382 (comment). I will copy paste the new structure from the sched pr to this one |

Summary
Add a new Seqera Intelligent Compute section to the AWS Cloud compute environment docs (cloud + enterprise), documenting the optional capability that offloads Nextflow tasks to a Seqera-managed Amazon ECS cluster, and the additional IAM policy required to enable it.
The new section explains:
