AI-Loop Skill

Overview

The ai-loop skill structures a bounded development cycle for agentic workflows. By dividing the process into distinct planning (Spec), implementation (Build), and validation (Review) phases, it helps an agent build and correct scoped code changes while keeping requirements, risk gates, and stop conditions explicit.

When to Use This Skill

• Use when you need a feature built from scratch or heavily modified, and you want the agent to handle the lifecycle (specification, implementation, and verification) inside one clearly bounded workflow.
• Use when working with isolated components, modules, or features that have well-defined scopes and constraints.
• Use when the user asks for a complete development pass but the work still has clear success criteria, a reasonable verification path, and no unresolved safety or product decisions.

How It Works

This skill executes a controlled development loop composed of three phases: Spec, Build, and Review. When invoked, the agent moves through those phases until the scoped requirements pass verification, a stop condition is reached, or human approval is needed.

Before starting, define:

• The maximum number of build-review iterations.
• The verification commands or manual checks that count as evidence.
• The actions that require explicit approval, such as destructive commands, production changes, exte
