A command for starting a managed, repeated coding-work loop with a chosen pattern and safety mode. It creates a plan and runbook, which is a written set of steps for running and monitoring the loop.

Use it to start sequential, continuous pull-request, RFC dependency-graph, or infinite loops, choose safe or fast mode, verify the repository, and print monitoring commands.

It adds checks before autonomous work begins, including a passing test suite and an explicit stopping condition. This helps prevent an unattended loop from running without clear limits.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5	$0.00013	$0.00242
Opus 5	$0.00006	$0.00121

Security

Grade A, and why

loop-start scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured yesterday.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

This is a copy

88% identical to loop-start — 5 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.
