Meridian:autonomous

/meridian:autonomous — Hands-Free Execution

Run discuss→plan→execute for each remaining phase without manual intervention.

Arguments

• --from <phase_id> — Start from this phase.
• --to <phase_id> — Stop after this phase.
• --only <phase_id> — Run a single phase autonomously.

Keywords

autonomous, auto, hands-free, unattended, run all, batch execute

Procedure

1. Plan the run — Determine which phases need processing.

PYTHONPATH=$MERIDIAN_HOME uv run --project $MERIDIAN_HOME -- python -c "
import json
from scripts.db import open_project
from scripts.autonomous import plan_autonomous_run
from scripts.state import get_status
with open_project('.') as conn:
    status = get_status(conn)
    ms = status.get('active_milestone')
    if not ms:
        print('ERROR: No active milestone')
    else:
        result = plan_autonomous_run(conn, ms['id'])
        print(json.dumps(result, default=str, indent=2))
"

2. For each phase, determine the next step and dispatch:

   • discuss → Run /meridian:discuss --auto for the phase
   • plan → Run /meridian:plan for the phase
   • execute → Run /meridian:execute for the phase
   • verify → Transition to reviewing
   • complete → Skip (already done)

3. On failure, stop the loop and report which phase/step failed with error context. The state is resumable — running /meridian:autonomous again picks up where it left off.

Output

Show progress per phase: phase name, current step, result. On completion, show summary of phases processed.
