ruflo-loop-workers

Cache-aware /loop workers and CronCreate background automation. Substrate plugin for every recurring task in the ruflo family.

Install

/plugin marketplace add ruvnet/ruflo
/plugin install ruflo-loop-workers@ruflo

What's Included

  • Loop Workers: Recurring tasks via /loop with ScheduleWakeup (delay <270s for prompt cache hits)
  • CronCreate: Background cron jobs for audit, optimization, and monitoring
  • 12 Background Workers: ultralearn, optimize, consolidate, predict, audit, map, preload, deepdive, document, refactor, benchmark, testgaps
  • Daemon Management: Start, stop, status, trigger, and enable workers
  • ADR-091 Integration: Native Claude Code capabilities preferred over daemon polling

Requires

  • ruflo-core plugin (provides MCP server)

Compatibility

  • CLI: pinned to @claude-flow/cli v3.6 major+minor.
  • Verification: bash plugins/ruflo-loop-workers/scripts/smoke.sh is the contract.

ToolPurpose
hooks_worker-listList available workers and their triggers
hooks_worker-dispatchDispatch a worker run with --trigger <worker-name> and optional --scope
hooks_worker-statusInspect a running worker
hooks_worker-detectDetect which workers should fire based on context
hooks_worker-cancelCancel a running worker

Invocation pattern (CLI + MCP):

bash
# CLI
npx @claude-flow/cli@latest hooks worker dispatch --trigger document --scope api

# MCP
mcp tool call hooks_worker-dispatch --json -- '{"trigger": "document", "scope": "api"}'

Cache-aware /loop integration

This plugin pairs with ruflo-autopilot ADR-0001 which owns the 270s cache-aware ScheduleWakeup heartbeat contract. Recommended fallback heartbeat is 270 seconds — under the 5-minute prompt-cache TTL so the next wake-up reads conversation context cached. Going past 300s pays a cache-miss; rounding to 5 minutes is the worst-of-both case.

For event-driven loops, arm a Monitor and let the 270s wake be the safety net.

Namespace coordination

This plugin owns the worker-history AgentDB namespace (kebab-case, follows the convention from ruflo-agentdb ADR-0001 §"Namespace convention"). Reserved namespaces (pattern, claude-memories, default) MUST NOT be shadowed.

worker-history records dispatch events, durations, success/failure verdicts. Accessed via memory_* tools (namespace-routed).

Verification

bash
bash plugins/ruflo-loop-workers/scripts/smoke.sh
# Expected: "12 passed, 0 failed"

Architecture Decisions

  • ruflo-autopilot — owns the 270s cache-aware /loop heartbeat contract
  • ruflo-docs, ruflo-security-audit, ruflo-testgen, ruflo-knowledge-graph, etc. — worker-trigger consumers per the table above
  • ruflo-agentdb — namespace convention owner; backing store for worker-history
