Nightshift
Autonomous sequential development loop for AFK sessions. Works through your specs and bugs backlog one task at a time, fully completing each before moving on. Uses the testing trophy (integration-heavy) for test strategy, evals-first for quality gates, and progressive commits to reduce blast radius.
When to use Nightshift vs Swarm
| Nightshift | Swarm | |
|---|---|---|
| Goal | Ship spec'd features, fix bugs | Harden codebase quality |
| Agents | 1 sequential, no worktrees | 4 parallel in worktrees |
| Testing focus | Testing trophy (integration-heavy) + LLM judges | Coverage + mutation + CRAP |
| Review | Eval stack (hooks → tests → judges → codex) | Metric-driven quality agents |
| Best for | "Build these features while I'm away" | "Make the codebase healthier" |
