SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Scheduling and pacing prompts for a local agent can lead to idle time or missed actions. This skill provides a structured approach to run a prompt or skill at recurring intervals or in response to dynamic triggers within a session, improving efficiency and reliability.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Scheduled execution: run prompts at fixed intervals (e.g., every few minutes) or on dynamic wake signals.
  • Dynamic pacing: adapt the next wake by events or time, keeping the agent proactive.
  • Operational guidance: detects existing loops, arms a background watcher, and safely stops loops when requested. Use cases include periodic health checks, regular status reports, and scheduled data collection.

Quick Start

Start a loop by specifying an interval and a prompt, for example: /loop 5m check status

Frequently Asked Questions about loop

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I schedule prompts to run automatically at recurring intervals?▼

You can schedule prompts by specifying a time interval and a target prompt, such as using a command like /loop 5m check status. This arms a background watcher to execute the prompt automatically at recurring intervals within the session.

What is dynamic pacing for automated agent tasks?▼

Dynamic pacing adapts the next scheduled wake signal based on events or time rather than a fixed schedule. This keeps the agent proactive by triggering prompt execution only when specific dynamic conditions are met.

How do I safely stop a recurring background loop?▼

You can safely stop a recurring loop by issuing a stop control command within the local environment. The skill detects existing loops and ensures safe termination of background watchers when a stop is requested.

Can I use dynamic wake signals instead of fixed intervals for task scheduling?▼

Yes, task scheduling supports both fixed intervals and dynamic wake signals. You can adapt the next prompt execution by configuring watcher-based triggers to maintain proactive agent behavior across sessions.

Do I need any external dependencies to run scheduled loops in a local environment?▼

No external dependencies are required to run scheduled loops. The skill operates within a local agent session using built-in command parsing, interval parsing, and watcher-based wake signals for safe stop controls.
