This is the 8th installment in my "Claude Code environment" series. In the article on turning conversation logs into long-term memory I introduced an unattended job, and this time I want to talk about the boss of them all — an autopilot that keeps improving my own environment with zero user input to Claude Code.

"Autonomous loop" sounds great, but running an LLM unattended makes two scary things happen: ① it eats through your plan quota and ② it repeats the same task forever. I actually stepped on both. This article is a record of how I stopped each one mechanically.
