Copy-pasteable loop patterns for Windsurf, using Cascade Workflows as the manual workflow surface and .windsurf/rules/ for persistent skill context. External reminders or triggers can provide cadence, but should not merge or act on PRs.
| Example | Cadence | Risk | File |
|---|---|---|---|
| Daily Triage | 1d–2h (manual /daily-triage) |
Low | daily-triage.md |
| PR Babysitter | 5m–15m (manual /pr-babysitter; external reminder optional) |
Medium | pr-babysitter.md |
| CI Sweeper | 5m–15m (manual /ci-sweeper; external reminder optional) |
Medium | ci-sweeper.md |
| Issue Triage | 2h–1d (manual /issue-triage; external reminder optional) |
Low | issue-triage.md |
| Dependency Sweeper | 6h–1d (manual /dependency-sweeper; external reminder optional) |
Medium | dependency-sweeper.md |
