This orchestration ensures the AE cycle runs truly unattended, even across context window boundaries or when the executor would otherwise break out of the loop.

### Keeping the Loop Alive with `/loop`
67+
68+
A simpler alternative to agent teams is Claude Code's built-in `/loop` command. It re-sends a prompt at a fixed interval, nudging the agent to continue if it has stalled:
69+
70+
```
71+
/loop 30m continue the AAE loop
72+
```
73+
74+
This sends "continue the AAE loop" every 30 minutes. If the agent is still running, the message is queued; if it has stopped or is waiting for input, it restarts the cycle. Combined with `--dangerously-skip-permissions`, this provides a lightweight safeguard against the agent silently exiting the AE loop.
