# Loop Runs the autonomous backlog loop via the `tusk loop` CLI command. Queries the highest-priority ready task, dispatches it to `/chain` (if it has dependents) or `/tusk` (standalone), and repeats until the backlog is empty or a stop condition is met. > Use `/create-task` for task creation — handles decomposition, deduplication, criteria, and deps. Use `tusk task-insert` only for bulk/automated inserts. ## Usage ```bash # Run until backlog is empty tusk loop # Stop after N tasks tusk loop --max-tasks N # Preview what would run without executing tusk loop --dry-run # Unattended run — skip stuck chain tasks and continue tusk loop --on-failure skip # Unattended run — abort the chain on first stuck task tusk loop --on-failure abort ``` ## Behavior 1. Queries the highest-priority ready task (same WSJF ranking as `tusk task-select`) 2. Checks whether the task is a chain head (has non-Done downstream dependents via `tusk chain scope`) 3. Dispatches: - **Chain head** → `claude -p /chain <id> [--on-failure <strategy>]` - **Standalone** → `claude -p /tusk <id>` 4. Stops on non-zero exit from any agent, on empty backlog, or when `--max-tasks` is reached > **Note:** Tasks dispatched via `/tusk` or `/chain` use `tusk task-start --force` so that zero-criteria tasks emit a warning rather than hard-failing the automated workflow. ## Flags | Flag | Description | |------|-------------| | `--max-tasks N` | Stop after N tasks (default: unlimited) | | `--dry-run` | Print wha
