ok...then you can maybe with hotplug wait for ACTION='ifup'
maybe something like this (will not work, but you get the idea)

#!/bin/sh
# hotplug-script:

SCANNED='/your/path'
MYCHANNELS='1 2 3 154 168'

[ "$ACTION" = 'ifup' -a -e "$SCANNED" ] && {
	scan_for_known_networks | while read NETWORK_SETTINGS ; do
		connect $NETWORK_SETTINGS	# ssid, channel, pass etc.
		rm $SCANNED
	done
}

[ "$ACTION" = 'ifup' -a "$INTERFACE" = 'mywifi' ] && {
	for CHAN in $MYCHANNELS; do
		create_adhoc $CHAN
		touch 'SCANNED'
		wifi
	done
}

> If I understand the OpenWRT wiki hotplug is replaced by procd?

no. netifd will start hotplug if an interface comes up.
