SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Automates the looped execution of hotl-workflow-*.md files, iterating steps until the defined success criteria are met, and pausing for high-risk gates while auto-approving low-risk gates.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Automates autonomous execution of HOTL workflows by continuously looping through steps until success criteria are satisfied.
  • Automatically handles gate risk by auto-approving low-risk gates and pausing for human review on high-risk gates, with resume support for interrupted runs.
  • Produces a durable execution report and state snapshots to enable auditing, debugging, and resuming workflows.

Quick Start

Place a hotl-workflow-<slug>.md in your project root and run the loop-execution skill to start autonomous looping.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate looped execution of multi-step workflows until success criteria are met?

Looped execution of multi-step workflows is automated by continuously iterating through defined steps until success criteria are satisfied. The runtime reads workflow files, applies frontmatter-driven intent, and pauses execution only when encountering high-risk gates requiring human intervention.

How does gate management work when automating human-in-the-loop workflow execution?

Gate management during human-in-the-loop workflow execution automatically approves low-risk gates to maintain flow. High-risk gates trigger a pause for human review, ensuring safety while allowing the rest of the automated execution to proceed uninterrupted.

Can I resume an interrupted workflow run with durable state persistence?

Interrupted workflow runs can be resumed using durable state persistence. The runtime captures state snapshots during execution, allowing the looped process to recover and continue from the exact point of interruption without losing prior progress.

How do I get an execution report for auditing automated workflow loops?

An execution report for auditing automated workflow loops is produced automatically upon completion or interruption. The runtime generates durable execution reports and state snapshots to enable debugging, auditing, and resuming workflows.

What do I need to start automating hotl-workflow files in my project?

To start automating hotl-workflow files, place a hotl-workflow-<slug>.md file in your project root. Running the automation skill reads this file to begin autonomous looping through the defined workflow steps and gates.
