Fullrun Skill

Overview

This skill implements a task execution system with the following features:

1. State Management: Uses .claude-status.txt file to track execution state
• 0 = Idle, ready to execute (or file doesn't exist)
• 1 = Claude is currently executing tasks
• 2 = All tasks completed, monitoring should exit

1. Task List: Reads pending tasks from checklist.md

1. Scripts: Executable scripts in the scripts/ directory

Requirements

• jq - Required for install/uninstall scripts
• macOS: brew install jq
• Linux: apt install jq or yum install jq

Usage

Installation (run once per project)

The installer creates project-local configuration in ./.claude/ - no global settings are modified.

# In your project directory, run:
./scripts/install.sh

What the installer does:

1. Creates .claude/ directory in your project
2. Copies scripts to .claude/fullrun/scripts/
3. Creates or updates .claude/settings.local.json with:
• Permission rule for project scripts
• SessionStart hook for auto-monitoring

Scope: Configuration is project-local only. Other projects are not affected.

Uninstall

./scripts/uninstall.sh

This removes:

• The .claude/fullrun/ directory
• Fullrun permission rule from .claude/settings.local.json
• Fullrun hook from SessionStart (preserves other hooks)
• .claude/settings.local.json if it becomes empty

Start scheduled monitoring (recommended)

./.claude/fullrun/scripts/main.sh start

Manually execute tasks

./.claude/fullrun/scripts/main.sh run

Check status

./.claude/fullrun/scripts/main.sh status

Stop monitoring

./.claude/fullrun/scripts/main.sh stop

Execution Rules

1. If .claude-status.txt does not exist or contains 0, start executing unfinished tasks from checklist.md
2. When executing tasks, set .claude-status.txt to 1
3. When all tasks are completed, set .claude-status.txt to 2
4. Scheduled task checks every 1 minute:
• If status = 0 or file doesn't exist + pending tasks = start execution
• If status = 1 = Claude is running, continue waiting
• If status = 2 = All tasks completed, exit monitoring
5. Monitoring automatically exits when all tasks are completed (status=2)

Task Marking Format

In checklist.md, tasks use the following format:

• [ ] indicates incomplete
• [x] indicates completed

Example:

# Checklist

- [ ] Task 1: Complete a feature
- [ ] Task 2: Write tests
- [x] Task 3: Completed task

Notes

• Scheduled monitoring is session-level, stops when the current terminal session ends
• For persistent monitoring, use system cron or launchd
• The SessionStart hook checks for checklist.md in the current working directory at runtime
• Configuration is project-local via .claude/settings.local.json

Security Notes

What this skill accesses:

• Reads checklist.md in your current project directory
• Creates/reads .claude-status.txt in your current project directory
• Writes execution log to .fullrun.log
• Does NOT access the internet
• Does NOT request or transmit credentials

What the installer modifies:

• .claude/settings.local.json - Project-local settings (gitignored)
• .claude/fullrun/scripts/ - Project-local scripts

Persistence:

• The SessionStart hook runs at the start of each Claude Code session in this project
• It only starts monitoring if checklist.md exists and no execution is in progress
• Uninstall removes all modifications in the project

How Task Execution Works

1. The shell scripts (fullrun.sh, cron-manager.sh) handle:
• State management (.claude-status.txt)
• Task queue management (reading checklist.md)
• Logging (.fullrun.log)
• Marking tasks as complete

1. Task execution is delegated to Claude Code:
• When a task is started, it outputs the task description
• Claude Code reads the task and executes the appropriate commands
• This design allows for complex, multi-step tasks that require AI reasoning

Cross-Platform Compatibility

• macOS: Fully supported
• Linux: Fully supported
• Windows: Requires WSL or Git Bash

The scripts use awk for text processing to ensure consistent behavior across all platforms.
