long-running-orchestrator

Run multi-hour or multi-session work safely by combining the ledger, checkpoints, cost-ceiling guard, and resumable progress notes.

Workflow

1. Initialize the ledger: ensure ledger/current.md exists; write objective + success criteria + plan checklist.
2. Run small, durable steps. After each meaningful step, append a dated note to ledger/current.md (or run bash scripts/checkpoint.sh).
3. Update ledger/verification.md whenever a test/build run produces a meaningful result.
4. Cost-ceiling guard (long-running-pack hook) protects against runaway loops.
5. On forced stop or session end, summarize state in ledger/current.md before doing anything else.
6. First action of any resume session is to read ledger/current.md and ledger/decisions.md.
7. Complete only when the objective is met, verification has run, and a summary is written.

Constraints

• Never claim progress that is not in the ledger.
• Never silently widen scope; for related-but-different work, write a new objective.
