Keep one agent task progressing linearly until an objective completion condition passes, with fresh state checks and hard resource limits. Use when the user has one long-running goal that does not need parallel PR orchestration or a changing workflow graph.

Watch one existing GitHub pull request, validate and address review comments, repair scoped CI failures or clear conflicts, request fresh review after each changed head, and stop when merge-ready or blocked. Use when the user asks to babysit, monitor, fix, or carry a PR through review.

Orchestrate a multi-stage engineering project through dynamically grouped or stacked Codex tasks, branches, pull requests, independent reviews, remediation cycles, and merge. Use when one goal needs multiple PRs or when the user wants a project carried autonomously from plan to merged changes.

Maintain a repository on a recurring heartbeat by inspecting issues, pull requests, CI, dependencies, and repository-local priorities, then directing bounded work to fresh Codex tasks. Use when the user asks Codex to maintain a repo, run recurring engineering triage, or wake periodically and dispatch useful work.

Design and run a loop around any repeatable agent workflow. Use when the user invokes `$loop`, asks Codex to keep watching or working, wants agents to prompt other agents, or needs a dynamic workflow whose shape should be inferred from the goal rather than selected up front.

Monitor a changing source or condition on a cadence, persist the last meaningful observation, and notify or act only when a user-defined change occurs. Use for watching pull requests, issues, releases, prices, availability, feeds, pages, dashboards, or other external state.
