Thanks for clarifying it.
The default bzImage kernel already had the network drivers needed for my setup (onboard Realtek NIC). I checked the WoL status of the ethernet adapter with ethtool. It showed:

Supports Wake-on: pumbg Wake-on: d

So WoL was supported, but disabled.
Then I followed this guide to enable WoL on boot: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Wake-on-LAN
I created the /etc/udev/rules.d/81-wol.rules file in init.xz and init_32.xz, and added this rule:

ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="net", ATTR{address}!="00:00:00:00:00:00", RUN+="/usr/sbin/ethtool -s $name wol g"

I use ATTR{address} instead of NAME, so this rule would apply to any network interface (except loopback), regardless of the interface name.
With this rule in place I can wake up computers after a shutdown task (deploy with shutdown or capture with shutdown).

TLDR; I only needed to add an udev rule to the pre-built init.xz and init_32.xz (https://github.com/FOGProject/fos/releases/latest) to enable WoL.

For the custom task to clear itself from Active Tasks you may be able to switch out pxelinux with ipxe. Using the following embedded script to undionly.kpxe will send the mac to a php script on your web server which can delete the task. This method would delete the active task before it has finished though which may not be desirable in your environment.
