GitHub is the ledger, GitHub Actions is the clock, chat is where the human plans. You (Claude Code, Cursor, or any agent with `gh`) are the hands for setup and the PM for cards.

review (TIME_REVIEW): Cursor model | Venice seat | off

@seat [model] [effort] in any comment ─▶ mention.yml ─▶ seat replies in the thread (Venice)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Files: `.github/workflows/{heartbeat,mention}.yml`, `.github/time/time.py` (stdlib), `.github/time/seats.json` (roster + aliases).
|
||||
Card states (Time's comments on the issue): `would-dispatch` → `dispatched` → `pr` · side states `needs-done`, `stuck`, `blocked` (a key is missing; resumes by itself once added), `error` (comment `/time retry`).
|
||||
|
||||
## Setup (idempotent; do the missing steps only)
|
||||
Files: `.github/workflows/{heartbeat,mention,doctor}.yml`, `.github/time/time.py` (stdlib), `.github/time/seats.json`, `.github/time/test_time.py` (offline tests).
|
||||
|
||||
1. `gh auth status` — must be logged in with access to this repo. If not, ask the human to run `gh auth login`.
|
||||
## Setup (idempotent; do only what's missing)
|
||||
|
||||
1. `gh auth status` — logged in with admin on this repo. If not: ask the human to run `gh auth login`.
|
||||
2. Label: `gh label create ready --color 0e8a16 --description "Time picks this up on the next heartbeat" || true`
|
||||
3. Variables: `gh variable set TIME_MODE --body dry-run` and `gh variable set TIME_DAILY_CAP --body 5` (skip if set: `gh variable list`).
|
||||
4. Keys (repo secrets; the human pastes them, you never print or log them):
|
||||
- Seats on Venice: `gh secret set VENICE_API_KEY` (prompts for the value).
|
||||
- Worker on Cursor: `gh secret set CURSOR_API_KEY`.
|
||||
Check with `gh secret list` (names only). Missing keys are fine: seats say so in the thread.
|
||||
5. Prove the clock: `gh workflow run heartbeat.yml`, then `gh run list --workflow heartbeat.yml -L 1` until it completes; it must be `success`.
|
||||
6. Prove a seat: open a scratch issue whose body is `@kimi say hi in five words`; within a minute or two `github-actions[bot]` replies. Close the scratch issue.
|
||||
7. Report to the human: what was already set, what you set, what is still missing (by name).
|
||||
3. Settings (`gh variable list` first; set only missing ones):
|
||||
- `gh variable set TIME_MODE --body dry-run`
|
||||
- `gh variable set TIME_DAILY_CAP --body 5` — max agent launches per day
|
||||
- optional `TIME_CURSOR_MODEL` (worker model id; unset = Cursor's default), `TIME_REVIEW`, `TIME_STUCK_HOURS` (default 6)
|
||||
4. Cursor (the worker):
|
||||
- The human installs Cursor's GitHub app on this repo (Cursor dashboard → Integrations → GitHub). Cloud agents can't clone or open PRs without it. You can't check this from `gh`; ask them to confirm.
|
||||
- The human creates an API key (Cursor dashboard → API Keys) and stores it: `gh secret set CURSOR_API_KEY` (they paste the value at the prompt).
|
||||
5. Optional, seats on Venice: `gh secret set VENICE_API_KEY`. Without it, `@seat` mentions reply that the key is missing.
|
||||
6. Check: `gh workflow run doctor.yml`, wait for `gh run list --workflow doctor.yml -L 1` to finish, then read it with `gh run view --log` (or the run summary). It runs the offline tests, then checks the label, settings and keys, and lists the Cursor models the key can use. Use one of those ids for `TIME_CURSOR_MODEL` or a `cursor:<id>` reviewer.
|
||||
7. Prove the clock in dry-run: make a small card (below) with the `ready` label, run `gh workflow run heartbeat.yml`, and confirm Time comments "would dispatch".
|
||||
8. Report to the human: what was already set, what you set, what's still missing (by name), and that it's in dry-run.
|
||||
|
||||
## Writing a card
|
||||
|
||||
An issue is a card. The heartbeat only dispatches cards that have the `ready` label **and** a `DONE:` line.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
<what to change, as a short list>
|
||||
<what to change, as a short list; one PR's worth>
|
||||
|
||||
DONE: <what finished means / where it goes next>, e.g. DONE: PR open, tests green, send to @review
|
||||
DONE: <what finished means>, e.g. DONE: PR open, tests green
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
No `DONE:` → the heartbeat asks for one instead of dispatching. Keep cards small: one PR's worth.
|
||||
Label it `ready`. No `DONE:` line → Time asks for one instead of dispatching. The worker is told to open a PR containing `Closes #N`; that's how Time links the PR back.
|
||||
|
||||
## Review
|
||||
|
||||
`TIME_REVIEW` (repo variable):
|
||||
- `off` (default)
|
||||
- `cursor:<model id>` — a second Cursor agent, on a different model, reviews the PR without pushing (uses one launch from the daily cap)
|
||||
- `venice:<seat> [model] [effort]`, e.g. `venice:kimi` or `venice:grok 4.7 high` — that seat posts its review on the PR
|
||||
|
||||
## Seats
|
||||
|
||||
`@seat [model] [effort]` anywhere in an issue, PR or comment. Up to two words after the seat are read; prose after that is ignored.
|
||||
`@seat [model] [effort]` anywhere in an issue, PR or comment: `@kimi`, `@grok 4.7 low`, `@qwen max high`. Roster and aliases in `seats.json`. Efforts: `low`, `med`, `high`. Quoted lines and `code` are ignored; bots never trigger replies.
|
||||
|
||||
| write | runs |
|
||||
|---|---|
|
||||
| `@kimi` | seat default (see `seats.json`) |
|
||||
| `@grok 4.7 low` | `grok-4-7`, low effort |
|
||||
| `@qwen max high` | alias `max`, high effort |
|
||||
|
||||
Efforts: `low`, `med`, `high` (`xhigh`/`max` become `high`). Quoted lines and `code` are ignored. Bots never trigger replies.
|
||||
Not a Time seat: `@cursor`. If Cursor's GitHub app is installed, `@cursor` in a comment is Cursor's own integration and it answers directly.
|
||||
|
||||
## Going live
|
||||
|
||||
Only when the human says so: `gh variable set TIME_MODE --body live`. The daily cap (`TIME_DAILY_CAP`) still applies. Turning it off again is the same command with `dry-run`. Pausing everything: `gh workflow disable heartbeat.yml`.
|
||||
Only when the human says so: `gh variable set TIME_MODE --body live`. The daily cap still applies. Back to `dry-run` the same way. Stop everything: `gh workflow disable heartbeat.yml`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Rules
|
||||
|
||||
- Never print, echo, commit or paste a secret. Secrets go in with `gh secret set`, values typed by the human.
|
||||
- Ask before: going live, raising the daily cap, or adding a self-hosted runner. A public repo must never get a self-hosted runner.
|
||||
- Runner minutes: private repos get a monthly free allowance and each job rounds up to a minute. Keep the heartbeat hourly unless the human asks.
|
||||
- Status questions: `gh issue list -l ready`, `gh run list -L 10`, and the latest Time comments on each card.
|
||||
- Ask before: going live, raising the daily cap, changing the heartbeat schedule, adding a self-hosted runner. A public repo must never get a self-hosted runner.
|
||||
- Runner minutes: private repos have a monthly free allowance, each job rounds up to a minute; keep the heartbeat hourly unless asked. Cursor agent runs bill to the human's Cursor plan.
|
||||
- Changed `time.py`? Run `python3 .github/time/test_time.py` before committing.
|
||||
- Status: `gh issue list -l ready`, `gh run list -L 10`, and the latest Time comment on each card.
