When you step away, let Agent Autoloop keep going and ping you only when it must

The scene

A long job is already running in a command-line agent, you have to step away, and you want routine steps to continue while risky or ambiguous ones wait for you.

Tools involved

What they did

1. Have a signed-in command-line agent such as Codex or Claude Code ready, and install Agent Autoloop from its project notes. A recent Node version is required; a Feishu channel is optional.
2. State the rule clearly: keep going on routine steps, and send a card when a choice, a secret, a deletion, a payment, or an outbound message is needed.
3. Finish or safely pause the current round before you leave, then hand the rest to the loop.
4. When a card arrives, read what is already done and where it is stuck before you tell it to continue.

Copyable prompt

Continue this task while I am away. Keep going on routine steps. If you need a decision or a secret, or if the next step would delete data, spend money, message the outside world, or cannot be undone, send me a Feishu or desktop card, explain what is already done and where you are stuck, and wait. Do not guess past those points.

Things to watch

A directory write-up reported a public test run: 697 of 719 tests passed, none failed, and 22 were skipped. That is second-hand, not a result from this site, and not a promise for your machine. The loop is free and open source, but you still need a signed-in command-line agent subscription and a suitable Node version. Generally reproducible in China.

Reusable templates

Ping me with a Feishu or desktop card only when you need a choice or a secret, or when the next step would delete data, spend money, message the outside world, or cannot be undone. Otherwise keep going, and say in the card what is done and where you are stuck.
