Copy-paste Claude Code /loop, /goal, and /schedule recipes: CI until green, PR babysit, test watcher, plus stop budgets.

Codex has no /loop. Keep working with /goal (CLI 0.128+), schedule Automations, or wrap codex exec in cron until a verifiable stop.

Run standing loops in Copilot Studio with Workflows, autonomous triggers, and agent flows on a schedule — not chat turns. Copy-paste setup, capacity costs.

Run Cursor loops with Agent, /loop, Cloud Agents, and Automations. Local /loop dies when you close the laptop; Automations persist on Cursor VMs.

Run GitHub Copilot loops in VS Code Agent mode and Copilot CLI: think-act-observe, autopilot, experimental /every. Commands, credit burn, honest limits.
