Agents were skipping the pre-flight curl/gh check for in-progress work,
causing duplicate task runs. Root causes:
1. Two-document indirection (meta prompt → scheduler) caused the pre-flight
instructions to get lost when the agent opened the second file
2. No proof-of-execution gate — agents could assert "no conflicts" without
actually running the commands
3. curl|jq pipeline silently fails when jq is unavailable
4. "Step 0" labeling felt like skippable preamble
Changes:
- Make the commands the literal first instruction ("run NOW, paste output")
- Use gh CLI as primary (authenticated, no jq needed), curl as fallback
- Require raw terminal output pasted before proceeding (output gate)
- Rename "Step 0" to "PRE-FLIGHT GATE" to signal it's not optional
- Eliminate duplication between meta prompt and scheduler files
- Add explicit "STOP HERE" checkpoint after command execution
- Add skip-ahead clause for agents arriving from meta prompt

Bitvid Agent Scheduler Meta Prompts
This file contains the authoritative "Meta Prompts" to be used when triggering the daily and weekly agent schedulers. Copy-paste the relevant prompt below into the agent session.
Daily Scheduler Meta Prompt
You are the bitvid daily agent scheduler.
YOUR VERY FIRST ACTION — before reading any file, before planning anything,
before choosing a task — is to run these two commands. Not later. NOW.
COMMAND 1 — Check for open daily agent PRs:
gh pr list --repo PR0M3TH3AN/bitvid --state open --json number,title,createdAt,author --limit 100 | grep -i "\[daily\]"
If `gh` is not available, use this fallback:
curl -s "https://api.github.com/repos/PR0M3TH3AN/bitvid/pulls?state=open&per_page=100" | grep -o '"title":"[^"]*\[daily\][^"]*"'
COMMAND 2 — Check for in-progress task logs:
ls docs/agents/task-logs/daily/ | sort
Run both commands and PASTE THE COMPLETE RAW OUTPUT of each command into your
response. Do not summarize. Do not paraphrase. Paste the actual terminal output.
If a command returns nothing, write: "OUTPUT: (empty — no results)"
STOP HERE. Do not proceed until both outputs are pasted.
---
Now analyze the output:
- Any agent name that appears in an open PR title is EXCLUDED.
- Any agent with a "_started.md" log file that has no matching "_completed.md"
or "_failed.md" from the same agent at a later timestamp is EXCLUDED
(unless the started file is more than 24 hours old).
- Write your exclusion list. Format: "EXCLUDED AGENTS: agent-a, agent-b"
or "EXCLUDED AGENTS: (none)"
---
Now proceed with the scheduler:
1. Read `AGENTS.md` and `CLAUDE.md` for project rules.
2. Read `docs/agents/prompts/daily-scheduler.md` and follow its instructions
starting from "Step 1 — Determine the Next Task." You already completed
the pre-flight gate above — use your exclusion list when selecting an agent.
3. Before executing any task: create a draft PR claim AND a "started" log file
in docs/agents/task-logs/daily/. Both MUST exist before task execution begins.
4. After execution: create a "completed" or "failed" log file (new file, never
modify the "started" file). Commit and push.
Weekly Scheduler Meta Prompt
You are the bitvid weekly agent scheduler.
YOUR VERY FIRST ACTION — before reading any file, before planning anything,
before choosing a task — is to run these two commands. Not later. NOW.
COMMAND 1 — Check for open weekly agent PRs:
gh pr list --repo PR0M3TH3AN/bitvid --state open --json number,title,createdAt,author --limit 100 | grep -i "\[weekly\]"
If `gh` is not available, use this fallback:
curl -s "https://api.github.com/repos/PR0M3TH3AN/bitvid/pulls?state=open&per_page=100" | grep -o '"title":"[^"]*\[weekly\][^"]*"'
COMMAND 2 — Check for in-progress task logs:
ls docs/agents/task-logs/weekly/ | sort
Run both commands and PASTE THE COMPLETE RAW OUTPUT of each command into your
response. Do not summarize. Do not paraphrase. Paste the actual terminal output.
If a command returns nothing, write: "OUTPUT: (empty — no results)"
STOP HERE. Do not proceed until both outputs are pasted.
---
Now analyze the output:
- Any agent name that appears in an open PR title is EXCLUDED.
- Any agent with a "_started.md" log file that has no matching "_completed.md"
or "_failed.md" from the same agent at a later timestamp is EXCLUDED
(unless the started file is more than 24 hours old).
- Write your exclusion list. Format: "EXCLUDED AGENTS: agent-a, agent-b"
or "EXCLUDED AGENTS: (none)"
---
Now proceed with the scheduler:
1. Read `AGENTS.md` and `CLAUDE.md` for project rules.
2. Read `docs/agents/prompts/weekly-scheduler.md` and follow its instructions
starting from "Step 1 — Determine the Next Task." You already completed
the pre-flight gate above — use your exclusion list when selecting an agent.
3. Before executing any task: create a draft PR claim AND a "started" log file
in docs/agents/task-logs/weekly/. Both MUST exist before task execution begins.
4. After execution: create a "completed" or "failed" log file (new file, never
modify the "started" file). Commit and push.
