The assistant
Keep going until done
The assistant · 2 min read
When the assistant stops at its step limit in the middle of a long job, it carries on by itself instead of waiting for you to say Continue.
When you would want it
Long builds - a whole site, a refactor across many files - can need more than one turn's worth of steps. With this on, you can hand over a big job and come back to it finished.
Where to find it
- All Features → Keep going until done
- Turn on or off
- Settings
What you get out of it
- Long jobs finish instead of pausing at a step limit while you are away.
- A hard cap of five continuations keeps a confused run from going on forever.
How to use it, step by step
- Keep going until done is on from the start. To change it, open the approval menu in the chat's composer, or find it in Settings.
- Give the assistant a big job: a whole site, a refactor across the project, a feature with tests.
- If it reaches its step limit, Agentfly sends Continue for it, up to five times in a row, and notes each one in the conversation.
- Your own message or Stop resets the count, so you can always step in.
- With it off, the assistant stops at its step limit and a Continue button picks up where it left off.
- For work that runs without you, schedule the job in Automations - edits apply as it works by default.
Why this beats the usual way
Agents that stop at a step limit and wait for a human turn an overnight job into a morning of pressing Continue. Agentfly carries on by itself, within a limit you can see.
