alt Hacker News> Every night I tell me agents I'll be going to bed and to not ask questions and keep going.
Most harnesses now support something like this:
/goal "Work on the current plan until 11 AM in my time zone, provide a summary of all the overnight work then."
My friend and I have built portfolio management agents and pit them against each other to see who can make the most money (not real money just a simulated bank account and stock portfolio). So mine runs every morning to read the news and do analaysis and all that. I have it write a daily blog that I read to keep track of what it’s doing.
A daily blog for status and reasons for decision making works pretty well for tracking an agent that works unattended. It’s also kind of funny when it writes things like “well I got that one wrong” and “this is not what I expected to happen” hah
