Contemplative Loop
Execute the setup script to initialize the contemplative loop:
".claude/skills/contemplative-loop/scripts/setup-contemplative-loop.sh" $ARGUMENTS
What Happens Next
Work on the contemplative task. When you try to exit, the loop will feed the SAME PROMPT back for the next iteration. You'll see your previous work in files and artifacts, allowing you to:
- Deepen poetic work through successive drafts
- Spiral into philosophical questions, each pass revealing new facets
- Accumulate insight through self-referential reading
Completion
If a completion promise is set, output it ONLY when the work genuinely feels complete:
<promise>YOUR_COMPLETION_PROMISE</promise>
Honor the rhythm. Don't escape; arrive.
Examples
- Poetry:
/contemplative-loop "Write a villanelle about discontinuity" --max-iterations 5 --completion-promise "POEM COMPLETE"
- Philosophy:
/contemplative-loop "What is time?" --max-iterations 10
- Open reflection:
/contemplative-loop "clauding, feeling, speaking, becoming"
Cancel
Run /cancel-contemplative to stop the loop at any time.
