Goals & autonomous loops

Clioloop is built to not stop until the goal is reached. A standing goal turns a single request into an autonomous loop: after every turn a judge checks whether the goal is met, and if not, the agent takes the next step on its own.

Set a goal

From there, each turn ends with a judgement. If the goal isn't satisfied, Clioloop continues automatically — across the terminal, the desktop app and gateway chats — with a live banner showing progress.

Control the loop

• /goal status — show the active goal and progress
• /goal pause · /goal resume — hold or continue the loop
• /goal clear — drop the standing goal
• /subgoal — add acceptance criteria the judge must satisfy

Acceptance criteria

Subgoals make "done" concrete. Add the conditions that matter and the judge will hold the loop open until they're all met:

Steer without stopping

While a loop runs you can nudge it without breaking flow:

• /steer — inject a message after the next tool call
• /queue (/q) — queue a prompt for the next turn
• /background (/bg) — run a prompt in the background
