loop

/trinity:loop — run a remote agent in a sequential loop (or run it locally with local)

ℹ️ First, set expectations: before anything else, print one short line with this skill's version and its most recent change — the top entry of metadata.changelog above — e.g. loop vX.Y — recent: <summary>. Then proceed.

The remote counterpart to Claude Code's built-in /loop. Where /loop re-invokes your local session on a cadence, /trinity:loop hands one bounded, sequential loop to a remote Trinity agent: you fire it once with run_agent_loop, get a loop_id, and can walk away — the backend runs every iteration in order, optionally chaining each response into the next, and exits on a hard cap or a stop signal.

Use it for iterative refinement, agentic retry, and bounded polling that must outlive your session (and the sync MCP window — a plain chat_with_agent hands back a queued_timeout receipt at ~25s; a server-side loop outlives all of that). When the task lives on this machine and doesn't need to outlive the session, add local to run the same bounded loop natively here — see Local mode.

Usage

/trinity:loop [@agent] <message>             start a remote loop (default verb)
/trinity:loop local <message>                run the loop natively in this session
/trinity:loop status <loop_id>               show per-run progress
/trinity:loop stop <loop_id>                 request a graceful stop

No @agent means this agent's remote copy — the usual case is looping your own remote counterpart on Trinity.

Modifiers, anywhere in the message:

<N> times | x<N> | max <N>      iteration cap (max_runs, 1–100; default 5)
every <N>m | every <N>s         pause between iterations (delay_seconds, up to 1h)
until <condition> | stop when … Until mode — exits early on the [[DONE]] sentinel

Examples:

/trinity:loop @researcher draft section {{run}} of the report, 5 times
/trinity:loop refine the report until every TODO marker is resolved — stop when none remain
/trinity:loop @ci-agent run the test suite until it passes, max 10
/trinity:loop @monitor poll the deploy every 2m until it's healthy
/trinity:loop local run the test suite until it passes, max 10
/trinity:loop status loop_a1b2c3
/trinity:loop stop loop_a1b2c3
