Yes, those are files which are created in the repo.

That's currently the naming, but we anticipate changing it in the future
and so I strongly recommend that you do not make assumptions or depend
on that exact naming.

Yes.

What is the cronjob doing..?  You really shouldn't be hacking around
with things in the repo- there's commands available like archive-get to
extract out WAL files from the repo.

No.
