autoresearch-builder is a plugin marketplace that adds one Claude Code plugin running an autonomous modify-test-keep/discard experiment loop.

About

autoresearch-developer is a one-plugin Claude Code marketplace from Jung-Wan Kim that implements an autonomous experiment loop: propose a change, run tests, decide keep or discard, and repeat. developers use it when validating technical bets—model tweaks, refactor paths, or feature prototypes—without babysitting each iteration. The design echoes karpathy/autoresearch, making it familiar to developers who want empirical iteration inside their agent workflow rather than ad-hoc prompts. It spans validate and build because successful keeps become product code, but the marketplace’s primary home is early scoping and proof. Expect intermediate complexity: you must supply meaningful tests and safe boundaries so the loop does not churn destructive changes. Ideal for developers running tight feedback cycles on APIs, agents, or research codebases.

  • Single autoresearch-builder plugin (v1.1.0) for closed-loop experiments
  • Workflow: modify, test, keep or discard, repeat without manual orchestration
  • Designed for any project type, not only ML notebooks
  • Inspired by karpathy/autoresearch pattern for agent-driven iteration
  • Productivity category plugin aimed at autonomous research sessions

What it does

Run a karpathy-style autonomous modify-test-keep/discard loop from Claude Code to explore ideas without manual experiment bookkeeping.

Who is it for?

Best when you're validating hypotheses with automated tests and want agent-driven iteration inspired by autoresearch.

Skip if: Production-only hotfix workflows with no test harness or teams that forbid autonomous file changes.

What you get

After install, the agent can loop experiments automatically so only changes that pass your tests survive in the repo.

  • One autoresearch-builder plugin wired to your repo
  • Iterated patches that pass your test gate before keep
  • Documented experiment outcomes from repeated agent cycles

By the numbers

  • Marketplace contains 1 plugin named autoresearch-builder at version 1.1.0
  • Core loop steps: modify, test, keep/discard, repeat
