SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill prevents the AI's evolution process from halting due to unexpected crashes or server restarts, ensuring continuous self-improvement without manual oversight.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Automated Restarts: Automatically checks and restarts the evolver loop if it stops.
  • Scheduled Monitoring: Uses a cron job to ensure the evolver is active every 10 minutes.
  • Use Case: If the AI's evolution process unexpectedly terminates overnight, this skill will detect it and restart the process, allowing the AI to continue learning and improving without human intervention.

Quick Start

Install the watchdog to ensure the evolver loop is always running.

FAQPage Schema
How do I keep a daemon running continuously after a server reboots?

To keep a daemon running continuously after a server reboots, you can use a self-healing mechanism that installs a system cron job to automatically monitor and restart the process. This ensures the daemon recovers from unexpected failures without manual oversight.

What is a self-healing cron job for process monitoring?

A self-healing cron job for process monitoring is a scheduled task that checks if a daemon is active and restarts it if it stops. It uses the cron scheduler to detect process failures or server reboots and automatically recovers the loop.

How do I automatically restart a crashed process using cron?

To automatically restart a crashed process using cron, install a scheduled monitoring job that checks the process status every 10 minutes. If the monitoring detects the process has terminated, it triggers a restart to resume the loop.

Do I need crontab availability to set up automated process recovery?

Yes, you need crontab availability to set up automated process recovery, as the self-healing mechanism relies on a system cron job to schedule monitoring checks. You also need the evolver-control skill for process management.

Can I use a watchdog script for 24/7 daemon automation?

Yes, you can use a watchdog script for 24/7 daemon automation. The script installs a cron job to monitor the evolver loop, ensuring continuous operation by automatically detecting and recovering from process failures or server reboots.
