How it works

/goal Refactor auth module to use JWT

1. Sets the goal and sends the objective to the agent
2. Agent works on it, finishes the turn
3. After 2s idle, a continuation prompt auto-sends — agent keeps going
4. Loop continues until the agent calls update_goal(status: "complete") or you /goal pause

The agent sees the goal in its system prompt every turn, gets update_goal and get_goal tools, and receives a structured continuation prompt (ported from Codex) with objective, budgets, and completion audit instructions.

Commands

| Command | Action | |---|---| | /goal <objective> | Set goal, start working | | /goal <objective> --budget 50k | Set goal with token budget | | /goal | Interactive status menu | | /goal pause | Pause (stops continuation) | | /goal resume | Resume (restarts continuation) | | /goal clear | Remove goal | | /goal status | Show status |

What the agent gets

• System prompt: Goal objective, status, time/token budget injected each turn
• update_goal tool: Mark goal complete — pause/resume are user-controlled
• get_goal tool: Read current goal status and budgets
• Continuation prompt: Budget info + completion audit checklist (from Codex)
• Budget limit: When token budget exceeded, goal auto-pauses with wrap-up instructions
