If he's omniscient, he has no free will.

Your question completely misunderstands the notion of time for the divine. There is no tomorrow for god.

As long as he doesn't tell anyone he is doing A, sure why not. Why do atheist cling to Christians labeling God as omniscient, maybe it is a problem with linguistics? Maybe we don't have a word that can accurately describe "what" God is. But as all other humans, we use what we have, and describe to our best human ability.

In Jonah God repented of the evil which he was going to do to those people, he is omniscient, and also has free will

But then being omniscient it knows the outcome of B already and do C, and it goes on and on. You are right on your assumption.

There is only one perfect course of action. If everything God does is perfect, then he is extremely limited.
[edit] There would be a tomorrow for God. There are things he did yesterday that he is not doing today.

God can do anything that he wanted to do. He can even change you to be snake like satan.

He can't do it directly, but he just unlocks hell for the night and lets Satan take care of it for him.
Or something like that.
