            when: ( first_setup_nextcloud is changed ) or ( force_nextcloud_config|default(false) )
          
          - name: create optimize batch job
            copy:
              dest: /usr/local/bin/nextcloud_optimize.sh
              owner: root
              group: root
              mode: 0755
              content: |
                #!/bin/bash
                docker exec redis redis-cli -a {{ lookup('password', '{{ nextcloud_credential_store }}/redis_secret chars=ascii_letters,digits length=32') }} FLUSHALL
                docker exec --user www-data nextcloud php occ files:scan --all
                docker exec --user www-data nextcloud php occ files:scan-app-data
                exit 0
                
          - name: optimize nextcloud cronjob
            cron:
              name: nextcloud optimize
              minute: '15'
              hour:   '01'

any reason for this?

did you try to copy the cron.sh to your host, add your tasks and run the container like this:

  cron:
    image: nextcloud:apache
    restart: always
    volumes:
      - nextcloud:/var/www/html
      - /path/to/your/cron.sh:/crons.sh:ro
    entrypoint: /cron.sh
    depends_on:
      - db
      - redis
