autonomous-loop

autonomous-loop is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Pixel-Process-UG/superkit-agents. It costs 76 tokens per session (3,023 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An iterative development loop for projects that already have written requirements and an implementation plan. Each round loads the same context, performs one focused task, reports its status, and saves state for the next round.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps plan and build multi-step projects autonomously, delegate focused work, preserve progress between iterations, and stop when its defined completion conditions are met.
Why use it?
It supports continued development across repeated rounds without requiring a person to approve every individual task.

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.

Security

Grade A, and why

autonomous-loop 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 1mo ago.

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.

Autonomous Loop

Overview

The autonomous loop implements Ralph's iterative development methodology. Each iteration loads identical context (PROMPT + AGENTS files), executes one focused task, reports structured status, and persists state to disk for the next iteration. The loop continues until the dual-condition exit gate is satisfied. The core innovation is that deterministic conditions allow Claude to autonomously plan, build, and iterate toward quality without human intervention in the loop.

Announce at start: "I'm starting the autonomous loop. Loading context and beginning PLANNING mode."

Trigger Conditions

  • /ralph or /loop command invoked
  • Project has specs and is ready for iterative autonomous development
  • Multi-task implementation that benefits from autonomous iteration
  • User requests autonomous execution without per-task approval

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

autonomous-loop is a skill published in the GitHub repository Pixel-Process-UG/superkit-agents (3 stars, last pushed 7mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 76 tokens to every session and 3,023 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
