Practical Notes
- Install via Homebrew cask; prebuilt releases also available for macOS/Linux/Windows (per README).
- Use the task scheduler for recurring maintenance (dependency updates, lint + test, changelog drafts).
- Keep an “agent baseline” prompt + toolset template so scheduled jobs behave consistently.
Main
A useful pattern for scheduled agents:
- Create one “maintenance” job per repo: run tests, summarize failures, and open a todo list.
- Keep job prompts short and operational: inputs, expected output format, and stopping rules.
- Store artifacts (logs, diffs, reports) in a predictable folder so humans can review quickly.
If you treat scheduled agents like CI with a narrative report, you’ll get repeatable value instead of random “AI output”.
FAQ
Q: Is it only for one CLI? A: It’s designed as a workstation: pair it with Codex CLI and Claude Code, plus MCP/skills marketplaces (per README).
Q: What’s the first job to automate?
A: A nightly “health check”: lint → typecheck → tests → summary is the easiest win.
Q: How do I avoid flaky automation? A: Pin tool versions and keep prompts deterministic; require human review for any destructive action.
