pilot

One cycle of an autonomous task runner that checks an agenda, completes its top item, records what happened, and stops. Its state is stored through an API so the next cycle can continue later.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for repeated background work where each cycle should fetch priorities, perform one task, optionally delegate or browse once, and write a journal entry.
Why use it?
It keeps each run limited to one agenda item and avoids relying on memory between runs. The host starts the next cycle when more work is needed.

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

pilot scanned grade A with 1 finding 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 372 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Pilot - One Autonomous Cycle

JobPilot's autonomous mode: the host re-injects this skill perpetually, so each invocation is one stateless cycle - sense, decide, act, record, exit. All state lives in the API; nothing survives between invocations except what you write there. Do exactly one agenda item (at most one worker delegation, one browser activity), journal it, print the sentinel, stop.

0. Setup

Follow ../_shared/setup.md - health check GET /api/health first; abort with its standard message if down. Then generate a cycle id (uuidgen if present, else a portable fallback):

CYCLE_ID=$(uuidgen 2>/dev/null || cat /proc/sys/kernel/random/uuid 2>/dev/null || od -An -tx1 -N16 /dev/urandom | tr -d ' \n' | sed -E 's/^(.{8})(.{4})(.{4})(.{4})(.{12})$/\1-\2-\3-\4-\5/')

Load the pilot state - step 2 breaks priority ties with its goals text. No run-state check here: the host gates the loop.

curl -fsS -H "authorization: Bearer $JOBPILOT_API_TOKEN" "$JOBPILOT_API/api/pilot"

1. Sense

AGENDA=$(curl -fsS -H "authorization: Bearer $JOBPILOT_API_TOKEN" -X POST "$JOBPILOT_API/api/pilot/agenda/refresh")
AGENDA_VERSION=$(echo "$AGENDA" | jq -r '.version')

A 409 means the pilot was stopped mid-cycle - a rare race the host normally gates. Journal and exit empty.

curl -fsS -H "authorization: Bearer $JOBPILOT_API_TOKEN" -X POST "$JOBPILOT_API/api/pilot/journal" \
  -H 'content-type: application/json' \
  -d "$(jq -n --arg cid "$CYCLE_ID" \
    '{cycleId:$cid, entries:[{kind:"cycle", summary:"Pilot is stopped.", detail:{status:"empty", sleepSeconds:3600}}]}')"

Print [[JOBPILOT_CYCLE cycle=$CYCLE_ID status=empty sleep=3600]] as the final line, stop.

If .items is empty:

curl -fsS -H "authorization: Bearer $JOBPILOT_API_TOKEN" -X POST "$JOBPILOT_API/api/pilot/journal" \
  -H 'content-type: application/json' \
  -d "$(jq -n --arg cid "$CYCLE_ID" --arg s "All caught up - nothing needs doing; checking back at <nextWakeAt>." \
    --argjson detail "$(echo "$AGENDA" | jq '{status:"empty", sleepSeconds:.sleepSeconds}')" \
    '{cycleId:$cid, entries:[{kind:"cycle", summary:$s, detail:$detail}]}')"

What this file has done since we first saw it

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.

pilot is a skill published in the GitHub repository suxrobGM/jobpilot (60 stars, last pushed 11d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 33 tokens to every session and 7,618 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
