Goal-driven autonomous round loop. Give it a goal + acceptance checklist + round budget (touchpoint 1), then it researches, implements, self-checks, and retrospects round after round — driven by a Stop-event hook, not by prompt discipline — until the final acceptance audit (touchpoint 2, the loop's ONLY independent verification) passes every item, or a fuse blows (round cap / no-progress / refusal-to-retrospect). Use when the goal is known but the path is not; a known plan one-pass change belongs to $spec-workflow instead.
