continuous-agent-loop is an ECC agent-orchestration skill that runs self-correcting autonomous coding loops with quality gates, evals, and recovery controls for developers who need reliable long-running agent sessions.

About

continuous-agent-loop is an ECC v1.8+ standard loop skill that replaces autonomous-loops while preserving compatibility for one release cycle. The skill routes work through a decision flow—continuous-pr for strict CI/PR control, rfc-dag for RFC decomposition, infinite for parallel exploration, or sequential as the default—and documents a production stack pairing RFC decomposition, plankton-code-quality gates, eval-harness evaluation, and nanoclaw-repl session persistence. Developers reach for continuous-agent-loop when agent runs churn without measurable progress, repeat the same root-cause retries, stall merge queues, or drift costs through unbounded escalation. The skill encodes failure modes and recovery patterns so agent loops terminate with evidence instead of infinite retries.

  • Decision tree selects among continuous-pr, rfc-dag, infinite, and sequential loop types
  • Recommended production stack combines RFC decomposition, quality gates, eval harness, and session persistence
  • Prevents loop churn, repeated root-cause retries, merge queue stalls, and cost drift
  • Recovery commands include freeze loop, harness audit, scope reduction, and replay with acceptance criteria
  • v1.8+ canonical pattern superseding autonomous-loops with backward compatibility

How do you run reliable autonomous agent loops with quality gates?

Run reliable, self-correcting autonomous agent loops with built-in quality gates, evals, and recovery controls.

Who is it for?

Developers running multi-iteration Claude Code or Cursor agent sessions that need CI-aware PR control, RFC decomposition, or parallel exploration with measurable stop conditions.

Skip if: Developers who only need a single one-shot code edit without loop orchestration, eval harnesses, or autonomous retry management.

When should I use this skill?

An agent session needs a long-running autonomous loop with quality gates, eval loops, or recovery after repeated failures.

What you get

Selected loop strategy, quality-gate checkpoints, eval-harness results, and session-persistent agent run logs.

  • Loop strategy selection
  • Quality-gate checkpoint plan
  • Eval and recovery runbook

By the numbers

  • Defines 4 loop strategies: sequential, continuous-pr, rfc-dag, and infinite
  • Standard loop skill name in ECC v1.8+ replacing autonomous-loops for one release

How it compares

Pick continuous-agent-loop over a single-shot coding skill when agent runs need eval loops, PR-aware control, or RFC-driven decomposition instead of one-pass generation.

FAQ

Which loop strategy should continuous-agent-loop pick?

continuous-agent-loop routes to continuous-pr for strict CI/PR control, rfc-dag for RFC decomposition, infinite for parallel exploration, or sequential as the default when no special constraint applies.

What production stack does continuous-agent-loop recommend?

continuous-agent-loop recommends ralphinho-rfc-pipeline for RFC decomposition, plankton-code-quality with /quality-gate, eval-harness for evaluation loops, and nanoclaw-repl for session persistence.
