How it fires

How this skill gets triggered: by you, by Claude, or both.

  • Fires itselfAuto-invocation. Claude auto-loads it when your prompt matches the work.Auto-invocation is when the right skill fires by itself at the right moment, driven by a FLOW.md router and a hook, instead of you invoking it by name. It is the difference between a skill being installed and a skill actually getting used.Read the full definition →

Use `/loop` for in-session periodic workers. Cache-aware delays keep prompt cache warm:

  • Delay formula: `min(270, cache_ttl * 0.9)` -- default 270s

Dispatch a worker via MCP: `mcp__plugin_ruflo-core_ruflo__hooks_worker-dispatch({ trigger: "WORKER_NAME" })`

Then schedule the next iteration: `ScheduleWakeup({ delaySeconds: 270, reason: "next WORKER_NAME iteration" })`

Available Workers

| Worker | Interval | Description | |--------|----------|-------------| | audit | 270s | Security analysis | | optimize | 270s | Performance optimization | | consolidate | 600s | Memory consolidation | | predict | 270s | Predictive preloading | | map | 600s | Codebase mapping | | testgaps | 270s | Test coverage analysis | | document | 600s | Auto-documentation | | benchmark | 600s | Performance benchmarking |

MCP tool responses include `[LOOP_SUGGESTION]` and `[CRON_SUGGESTION]` hints -- follow them.

Ships withclaude-flow

An agent meta-harness for Claude Code and Codex. Agent = Model + Harness. The model writes; the harness gives it tools, memory, loops, sandboxes, and controls so it can actually work.
