iterate

Invoke the iterate skill by saying "iterate" or "run the cycle". It starts a loop that reads the board, dispatches one wave of isolated sub-agent batches on a single branch, watches CI, merges the PR, and repeats until no machine-only row is startable.

Batches fill until file contention stops them, with one agent per board row and rows sharing files combined into one brief. Haiku handles one-file mechanical changes, Sonnet handles bounded changes against existing patterns, and Opus is reserved for design work a Sonnet can then build.

The skill checks the SSO token with aws sts get-caller-identity before starting and treats the 8-to-12-hour window as the budget for every wave. When a render finds the token expired, it reports this on the prod line and prints the aws sso login command once.

Failures are diagnosed from the run's own job logs, with all failures in the run gathered before any fix. The fix rides on the same batch branch as a second commit, and pushes are never made while a deploy of that branch is in flight.

The loop stops when nothing is startable and the next unblock falls past the SSO window or on another day. It sends one push notification with the outcome, schedules a wakeup with stop, and halts any active Monitor.

Destructive or privileged commands—git worktree remove, git branch -D, git push --delete, ruleset or Actions-settings writes, AWS writes outside workflows, and Cognito or Step Functions invocations—are printed as fenced blocks with a ! prefix for the operator to run.
