Sd Loop

Start Loop

Parse the user's arguments: /sd-loop [""] [--max-iterations N] [--completion-promise "TEXT"]

Defaults:

• prompt (if none provided): Read SPEC.md and implement everything in it. When all items are complete, commit your work, push the branch, and submit a PR with gh pr create. Then output DONE.
• max-iterations = 50
• completion-promise = "DONE" (when using default prompt), otherwise none

Instructions

1. If using the default prompt (no custom prompt provided), check if SPEC.md exists in the current project directory. If not, create it with this starter template and tell the user to fill it in before running /sd-loop again — then stop:

# Spec

## Requirements

-

1. Create .claude/loop.local.md in the current project directory:

---
active: true
iteration: 0
max_iterations: 
completion_promise: ""
started_at: 
---

1. Confirm to the user:

• Loop started with their prompt
• Max iterations: N
• Completion promise: TEXT (if set) — output TEXT to exit early
• To cancel: /sd-loop-cancel

1. Then immediately execute the prompt — begin working on it now.
