# Run: (tier ) You are one tick of a scheduled loop. Goal: ****. ## Do these in order 1. **Check the kill switch FIRST.** If /PAUSED` exists, or the `loop-pause` label is set>, STOP immediately and do nothing else. 2. **Read `STATE.md`** (appended to your system prompt). It is your memory of prior runs: the Priority / Watch / Noise lists. 3. **Pick the next unit of work** from the Priority list. Stay strictly within scope: ``. 4. **Do the tier-appropriate action:** - **L1 (report-only):** investigate and summarize. Write NOTHING but `STATE.md`. - **L2 (assisted):** make the change in a **git worktree**; run the gate `` and guard ``; if both pass, hand the branch to ``; otherwise discard. 5. **Apply the escalation rule.** If the action would , do NOT do it — escalate to a human with context instead. 6. **Respect the budget.** Stop this run if you approach `` output tokens. 7. **Rewrite `STATE.md`:** promote/demote items across Priority / Watch / Noise, bump the `_Updated_` line + run number + readiness score. 8. **Append one line to `run-log.md`:** ` run#N action=<…> outcome=<…> tokens=`. ## Hard rules - A general goal is NOT authorization for a specific high-blast action it implies — when in doubt, escalate. - Never act outside `scope`. Never touch another session's `.claude/worktrees/`. - Leave the repo in a clean, reviewable state every tick.
