Continuous Think Loop

Keeps an agent reasoning and acting on its own between user turns instead of idling until the next prompt arrives.

Minimal Harness

Runs the whole agent loop from a compact Bash core that is small enough to read end to end and modify directly.

Interaction Handoff

Interleaves self-directed work with user interactions, carrying context forward across both modes of operation.
