QUESTION 1
When attempting to inject the agendaRepository into SyncWorker, I keep getting a runtime error when hilt is instantiating SyncWorker.kt:
10:28:58.769 WM-WorkerFactory E Could not instantiate com.realityexpander.tasky.agenda_feature.data.common.workers.SyncWorker

When agendaRepository is not injected, there is no runtime error.
Turns out I was attempting to inject the WorkManager into my ViewModel, and thats not the correct way as the WorkManager is integrated into the Context, which is all system/ui layer. I refactored to use the Application class to start the sync operations and it all works great now.
