Run "PR Watch Loop" in your agent

Prompt only

Deeplinks and "Open in Cursor" only paste the kickoff prompt. They do not install hook files — your agent cannot tell whether files are on disk until you add them yourself.

Two separate pieces

Kickoff prompt — tells the agent the goal, check command, exit condition, and how to self-pace.

Kickoff prompt

/loop 15m Start the "PR Watch Loop".

Goal: keep codex-watch PRs healthy and unblocked.
Between iterations run: gh pr list --label codex-watch --json number,title,state,statusCheckRollup
Exit when: status report is delivered for every watched PR.

Step 1: List codex-watch PRs, check CI and reviews, and report or fix trivial blockers.

Anti-gaming rules

Rules the agent must follow so it cannot cheat the exit condition.

Do not modify the check command or exit criteria to force success
Do not skip, disable, or bypass checks to pass the exit condition
If stuck after several iterations, stop and report blockers instead of gaming metrics
