Continuous Agent Loop
This is the v1.8+ canonical loop skill name. It supersedes autonomous-loops while keeping compatibility for one release.
Loop Selection Flow
Start
|
+-- Need strict CI/PR control? -- yes --> continuous-pr
|
+-- Need RFC decomposition? -- yes --> rfc-dag
|
+-- Need exploratory parallel generation? -- yes --> infinite
|
+-- default --> sequential
Combined Pattern
Recommended production stack:
- RFC decomposition (
ralphinho-rfc-pipeline) - quality gates (
plankton-code-quality+/quality-gate) - eval loop (
eval-harness) - session persistence (
nanoclaw-repl)
Failure Modes
- loop churn without measurable progress
- repeated retries with same root cause
- merge queue stalls
- cost drift from unbounded escalation
Recovery
- freeze loop
- run
/harness-audit - reduce scope to failing unit
- replay with explicit acceptance criteria

agent-ops-spec
Manage specification documents in .agent/specs/. Use when user provides requirements, acceptance criteria, or feature descriptions that need to be tracked and validated against implementation.
agent-ops-state
Maintain .agent state files. Use at session start, after meaningful steps, and before concluding: read/update constitution/memory/focus/issues/baseline consistently.
agent-ops-spec
Manage specification documents in .agent/specs/. Use when user provides requirements, acceptance criteria, or feature descriptions that need to be tracked and validated against implementation.
agent-ops-testing
Test strategy, execution, and coverage analysis. Use when designing tests, running test suites, or analyzing test results beyond baseline checks.
