auto is agent-read markdown (skill) from chan4lk/specclaw: Run the propose → plan → build → verify lifecycle autonomously across the queue of active changes. Advanced — requires automation config in config.yaml. Use when you want specclaw to advance every change to its next phase without prompting; do not use for a single targeted change (use the specific verb instead)..
Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.
What the file says
# specclaw auto
**First, run** `specclaw-ensure-init .specclaw` — idempotently creates `.specclaw/` if it doesn't exist (silent if already initialized; auto-inits using the current directory's basename as the project name).
Run the lifecycle autonomously for the active queue.
1. Read `.specclaw/STATUS.md` for the next actionable item across changes.
2. For each change, advance it to its next phase:
- Proposal exists without plan → run `/specclaw:plan`.
- Plan exists without implementation → run `/specclaw:build`.
- Built without verification → run `/specclaw:verify`.
3. Respect `config.yaml` limits:
- `automation.max_tasks_per_run` — cap on total tasks executed this run.
- `automation.auto_verify` — whether to chain verify after build.
- `automation.auto_archive` — whether to chain archive after a passing verify.
4. Notify the user of results via the configured notification channel.
Stop and surface the issue if any phase fails, rather than blindly advancing to the next change.
Pin to a label to follow the author's releases, or to a sha256 to freeze the exact bytes forever. Either way the resolved hash is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install reproduces it on any machine.
