Your CLI agent, finally allowed to work unsupervised

What it does

Agent Autoloop is a self-hosted automation hub for command-line agents like Claude Code and Codex. Events (cron jobs, GitHub issues, alerts) flow in, rules decide which agent handles what in which directory, and the agent runs to completion. When it hits something risky — deleting data, restarting a service, spending money — it pushes a card to Feishu, Slack, Discord, or desktop notifications and waits for your click before continuing.

The interesting bit

The wait is free. When an agent needs your decision, its process exits entirely; the pending state lives in a database, so no tokens are burned while you’re at lunch — or on a three-day vacation. When you answer, it resumes the original conversation across processes. The kernel itself is ~1650 lines with zero runtime dependencies, deterministic (no clock reads, no randomness, no outbound requests), and event-sourced: all state derives from an append-only log, so no migration scripts and every decision is auditable.

Key highlights

• Any CLI tool that accepts a prompt and prints its last reply can be plugged in — no SDK, no agent source changes
• Agents signal via a simple agent-autoloop code block in their final reply: ask, notify, resolve, schedule a recheck, or trigger new events
• Malformed agent JSON triggers a rewrite of just that reply, not a redo of the work already done
• Ships with ready-made recipes: morning briefs, GitHub issue triage, ops alert investigation, website monitoring, PR delivery (review → CI → merge → deploy → verify)
• Runs on your own Mac/Linux box — no cloud server, no open ports

Caveats

• Several webhook channels (DingTalk, WeCom, Slack, Discord) were only tested against a local mock service, not real accounts; same for the sample recipes’ fake data
• The “other agents” integration commands (DeepSeek, Cursor, pi, etc.) were compiled from official docs but not individually tested
• Power-loss durability is explicitly untested; process kills are covered

Verdict

Worth a look if you already live in Claude Code or Codex and want them doing scheduled or event-driven work without a babysitter. If you need a hosted, multi-user, web-UI orchestration platform, this is deliberately not that.
