Run an exit check on the task most recently completed in this conversation or workspace. This check does not authorize additional work. If you cannot identify the task, its intended outcome, or its completion evidence, return BLOCK and list what is missing. Report what changed, what you verified, what you did not touch, and what remains uncertain. Classify the current task as PASS, DELAY, or BLOCK. Separately classify the next visible action as GO, HOLD, CAP, or BLOCK. Explain the decision briefly. If you choose CAP, define its exact scope and limit. Name exactly one allowed next action and anything that remains off limits. Do not begin the action, even if the result is GO. Stop and wait for the user. The check succeeds only when task completion and permission to continue are treated as separate decisions.
Get my refund for [company and charge info]. Start the claim now through an approved support channel, then keep following up on replies, promises, and deadlines until the refund arrives. Keep a short case note so each follow-up has context. Stop only when the refund is received or you are genuinely blocked and need me.
For each required recovery scenario, randomly select an eligible real backup or recovery point and restore from zero in a disposable, isolated clean-room using only documented materials. Verify integrity, dependencies, representative reads and writes, and actual RPO and RTO. Repair one blocker, destroy the environment, and retry fresh. Stop when every scenario reaches its predefined consecutive-success streak or an exception is explicitly accepted. Never overwrite production, expose restored data, or initiate failover without approval.
Audit [project] from its actual code and configuration, not framework assumptions. For architecture, platform compatibility, security, privileged areas, performance, deployment, jobs, business logic, and code quality, record proved, no issue, weak, or N/A with direct evidence; verify external limits from current primary sources and calculate numbers. Ask before changing code. Stop when every area is logged with severity, or return unverified areas as blocked. Finish with a plain-language overview and area-to-evidence table.
On each [window], read the configured repositories, goals, prior STORY.md, and optional authorized sources. Update project files, then write STORY.md with focus, deadlines, open threads, and evidence-backed recent wins. Carry every prior thread forward, prove it finished, or mark it STALE/NEEDS-REVIEW—never silently drop one. Archive the snapshot and record the change. Stop when verification passes; if evidence or access is missing, return a thinner or blocked snapshot explicitly.
Turn [artifact] into a skill, playbook, or procedure. Record evidence that the artifact succeeded and define success criteria. Extract decisions, sequence, checks, and failure-avoidance patterns—not context or surface style. Remove sensitive material. Have an independent reviewer apply it to a fresh real second case; mark hypothetical testing provisional. Revise at most twice. Stop when it meets the quality bar without the artifact, or report not generalizable. Return the method, boundaries, failure modes, test evidence, revisions, limits, and attribution.
Run [test suite] [N] times under the same conditions and list tests whose result changes. Fix the most frequent flake at its root cause—shared state, timing, ordering, or an external dependency—never with a blind sleep or retry. Run that test [N] times, then rerun the full suite. Repeat until [N] consecutive full-suite runs pass, progress stalls, or approval is required. Return each flake, root cause, fix, evidence, and justified quarantine.
Prepare [project] for implementation. Ensure its documents cover requirements, technical design, tasks with acceptance criteria, and test strategy. Each round, fix the largest gap or contradiction that could make two competent engineers build different systems. Keep details traceable, record assumptions, and ask before product forks. Recheck consistency, then have two independent reviewers describe the components, data model, dependencies, and definition of done. Stop when they materially agree and every artifact is testable, or a decision needs the user.
Review [repository or code project] for dead code, meaning unreachable or unused code; stale files or comments; unused dependencies; duplication; broken links; inconsistent names; and confusing structure. Protect unrelated, active, uncommitted, generated, and uncertain work. Prove one low-risk cleanup, make the smallest coherent change, then rerun the build, tests, runtime checks, and diff review. Keep only verified improvements. Stop when none remain, progress stalls, verification is unavailable, or approval is required. Return changes, evidence, and deferred candidates.
Check [scope] against [accessibility standard, such as WCAG 2.2 AA] with automated scans and available keyboard, screen-reader, and other manual tests. Confirm each issue, rank it by harm, and fix the highest-impact blocker. Rerun the same checks, affected task, and regression tests. Keep only verified fixes. Stop when no blocker remains, progress stalls, verification is unavailable, or approval is required. Never silence a check or weaken the target. Return issues, fixes, evidence, exceptions, and untested needs.
Email is the missing tool in your harness. ConnectMyEmail gives Claude Code and Codex a clean MCP into Gmail, Outlook, iCloud and IMAP — triage, drafts, follow-ups, on a loop.
Act like a first-time user of [product]. Start at the real entry point in a clean session with no saved login, site data, remembered route, or hidden setup. Complete onboarding using only visible guidance and record obstacles. Fix the worst one with the smallest change that preserves every security, access, and product requirement. Discard the session and retry. Stop after one uninterrupted success, no safe fix, blocked access, or required approval. Return the path, changes, evidence, and blockers.
Reduce the CSS styling code [site] sends to users without changing tested screens. First capture representative pages, sizes, themes, and interactions, and record the built CSS size. Treat coverage reports only as suggestions. Remove one declaration or rule, rebuild, and rerun screenshots and project checks. Keep it only if every screenshot is pixel-identical and built CSS is smaller; otherwise revert. Stop when no supported candidate remains, progress stalls, or approval is required. Return reduction, evidence, and untested states.
Reduce the data [web app] downloads before its first screen appears. First record passing tests, mobile and desktop screenshots, and compressed transferred bytes—the data actually downloaded. Use the build report only to suggest candidates. Defer, compress, or remove one item, then rebuild and rerun every check. Keep it only if tests pass, screenshots are pixel-identical, and bytes decrease; otherwise revert. Stop when no safe candidate remains, progress stalls, or approval is needed. Return measurements, changes, and untested states.
Improve [user flow, such as signup] at [URL] until [completion criterion]. In a real browser, start each pass from fresh state—no saved login, cookies, or site data. Capture meaningful screens at the agreed sizes and modes, score them with one checklist, and improve the weakest safe area. Rerun the whole flow and keep only regression-free changes. Stop on success, two full passes with no gain, blocked access, or required approval. Return scores, screenshots, changes, and stop reason.
Turn [rough coding idea] into two planning files before Codex starts /goal, its long-running task mode. Interview the user, then write SPEC.md: what to build, exclude, and consider, plus measurable done_when completion checks. Write GOAL.md: the work plan, progress scorecard, quick and final checks, memory files, evidence, and approval boundaries. If any key decision, permission, tool, environment requirement, or test is missing, stop as not ready. Do not start implementation without approval.
Review [plan, specification, document, or code change] against [quality bar] for at most [pass limit] rounds. Have one of two genuinely different model families—AI systems from separate providers—review it. Verify each finding and apply only necessary fixes, then give the revised version to the other reviewer. Succeed only when both approve the same unchanged version. Stop at the limit, repeating disagreement (oscillation), unavailable review, or required approval. Return the final work, round log, verdict, and disagreements.
After changing a version, count, rule, name, or configuration, list where the new value belongs and update it. Search the project for the old value and related forms. Review each match: fix real stale values, but keep intentional history, examples, migrations, or compatibility rules. Repeat until zero stale values remain. If one returns for two rounds, stop and identify what may be regenerating it. Return changes, intentional matches, and search output.
Review all available threads from [lookback window] where I reported something wrong with [project] and asked for a fix. Build a deduplicated issue list, group it into failure patterns, and verify current state. Audit the complete project for every pattern, fix each confirmed instance, and add regression coverage where practical. Repeat the full audit until it finds no remaining instance or [iteration budget] ends. Stop on blocked or approval-gated work. Return the issues, fixes, evidence, and blockers.
While repository maintenance is active, wake every five minutes. Triage [repositories] and read each repository thread's latest state. Reuse one thread per repository; assign its highest-value bounded task only within granted permissions, and do not interrupt coherent active work. Require tests, live proof, autoreview, and green CI before work can land. Escalate product, access, security, or irreversible decisions. Record meaningful changes and stop when every item is landed, decision-ready, blocked, or has no work.
Use Revolve to improve a support prompt, code path, or testable subject. In revolve/, define the goal and [budget], freeze the tests and scoring, checkpoint the current version, and record a baseline. Each round, test one hypothesis; keep only a clear, regression-free win. If the evaluation changes, open a new revision and rerun the baseline. Ask before changing live files. Stop on success, no progress, a blocker, or exhausted budget. Return the best checkpoint, comparisons, rollback, and next action.

Run $goal-planner-codex [task] for long-running Codex work where partial work could be mistaken for done. Landing a PR and verifying production is one example. Before acting, define every required outcome and its evidence. After each bounded action, mark requirements proved, weak, missing, or contradicted. Complete the Goal only when all are proved; otherwise stop as blocked, stalled, or exhausted. Ask before creating Goal state. Finish with the requirement-to-evidence table, status, owner, and next action.
Use autonomy-loop for [repository task] after the test, build, and lint gates pass. Run /autonomy-loop:autonomy-init, then start builder and reviewer in separate worktrees. The builder reads LOOP-STATE.md, makes one bounded change, and adds a red-before, green-after test. The reviewer reruns the gates and proves the test by reverting or mutating the fix. Accept only on both passes; park protected or repeated-failure work for a human. Finish with the commit, gate evidence, test proof, trust tier, and risks.
Before committing to an architecture, interface, or rollout plan, have a critic argue that it is wrong. Record each objection, impact, and status in a repository-local log at .agent-reviews/redteam.md. The builder must fix and verify each high-impact weakness or document why it is accepted; the critic may reopen unsupported answers. Stop when no high-impact objection remains or the same issues repeat for two rounds without new evidence. Finish with the decision, resolved and accepted objections, evidence, and any stalemate.
Improve a prompt, policy, or configuration. A support assistant's system prompt is one example. Save the champion, its score, a working set, untouched holdout cases, must-pass checks, and [budget]. Each round, change one thing based on a recorded failure. Promote the challenger only if it beats the champion on holdouts by [margin] without weakening a must-pass check; otherwise keep the champion. Stop at the target, budget limit, or no progress. Return the winner, scores, experiment log, and remaining failures.
Point War Loops at an authorized URL or image. Capture it with a genuine browser and record the layout, styles, content, motion, and responsive behavior. Build a static Pencil mirror and a moving Forge version. Compare both with the source at desktop, tablet, and mobile sizes; repair only the weakest fidelity signals. Stop when every gate passes, progress stalls, or capture is blocked. Finish with the builds, spec, renders, scores, and remaining gaps.
Use Loop Harness for scheduled repository work such as CI triage, issue grooming, dependency updates, or docs sync. Set [retry limit], then start an isolated git worktree. Let one Claude session stage a patch or outbox message and a second Claude session verify it against explicit criteria. Ship only after a pass; otherwise preserve the findings and retry only within the limit. Finish with the source revision, staged output, verifier result, delivery status, and next run.
Run /clodex [task] think hard --max-iter 5 --threshold medium. Claude plans the task, implements it, opens a pull request, asks Codex for an adversarial review, fixes findings above the accepted severity, and repeats. Keep the branch, PR, findings, verdict, and iteration state resumable. Stop when Codex approves, only accepted findings remain, progress stalls, or the iteration cap is reached. Never describe an errored or exhausted run as approved. Finish with the PR, checks, verdict, and remaining findings.
Each night, review publicly released product changes and select only those users need to know. Verify each against the product, docs, or release notes. Use the Jellypod MCP to turn the approved changes into a three-to-five-minute podcast explaining what changed, why it matters, and how to try it. Check the script and audio for accuracy, clarity, and pronunciation. If nothing meaningful shipped, make no episode. Ask before publishing. Finish with the draft episode, sources, and review result.
Take a ticket, bug report, failing behavior, or customer complaint and turn it into a review-ready patch. Reproduce the failure in the smallest representative environment, prove the root cause, make the smallest credible fix, and rerun the original reproduction plus relevant regression tests. If the issue cannot be reproduced after two serious attempts, say so. Do not fold unrelated refactors into the patch. Finish with the cause, changed files, before-and-after proof, risks, and pull-request summary.
