Command definition
loop-start.mddescription: Prepare a managed autonomous loop pattern with safety defaults and explicit stop conditions, then print the commands to launch and monitor it. Use to set up sequential, continuous-pr, rfc-dag, or infinite loop patterns with safety gates before starting one; the continuous-agent-loop skill covers the same pattern selection and quality-gate guidance for in-conversation use (supersedes the deprecated autonomous-loops skill).
Loop Start Command
Start a managed autonomous loop pattern with safety defaults.
Usage
`/loop-start [pattern] [--mode safe|fast]`
- `pattern`: `sequential`, `continuous-pr`, `rfc-dag`, `infinite`
- `--mode`:
- `safe` (default): strict quality gates and checkpoints
- `fast`: reduced gates for speed
Flow
1. Confirm repository state and branch strategy. 2. Select loop pattern and model tier strategy. 3. Enable required hooks/profile for the chosen mode. 4. Create loop plan and write runbook under `.claude/plans/`. 5. Print commands to start and monitor the loop.
Required Safety Checks
- Verify tests pass before first loop iteration.
- Ensure `ECC_HOOK_PROFILE` is not disabled globally.
- Ensure loop has explicit stop condition.
Arguments
$ARGUMENTS:
- `<pattern>` optional (`sequential|continuous-pr|rfc-dag|infinite`)
- `--mode safe|fast` optional
Your agent can write code, but ECC gives it a coordinated engineering system and toolbox: it plans before it builds, verifies changes with tests, reviews its own work from a fresh context, remembers what matters, and turns repeated wins into reusable skills

build
CommandImplement tasks incrementally — build, test, verify, commit. Add "auto" to run the whole plan in one approved pass.
