My employer had us install a software called "fleet osquery", they said it's a first step toward inventory management of all the devices for IT. I guess it also adds a layer of safety by making sure nobody installs any dangerous software/malware on their work devices.

Looking at the docs , it looks like this can be used to remotely execute scripts on my laptop, should I be worried about my employer spying on me during work hours ? Or logging information about what I'm doing ?

Yeah it's generally advised to avoid trying to solve a HR problem with technology or at least with anything complicated.
