I started using dagu fairly recently so the rest is kinda a ball of various ruby scripts at this point so I can't give any good pointers here as I have no idea yet xd but overall I have some deterministic stuff (pick up some issue, setup worktree first, resume if crashed, implement, review and so on) build around just running claude/codex (one-shot)
there are _tons_ of solution for orchestration so it's really hard to choose from tbh; I gave herdr try this morning and ported my scripts so it works with their desktop app - looks kinda nice I guess; dagu have scheduler as well which is cool, but connecting different machines to single herdr server also looks kinda fun... so I guess I will continue experimenting until then ;)
edit: damn scripting herdr with mods open new window of opportunities, I dig it!
