Sst Chain Driver

Category: Engineering  ·  Sub-category: engineering-misc  ·  Last updated:
Single-session driver for a multi-iteration skill-chain run. Spawns `bin/skill-chain.py --chain <name> --loop N` as a subprocess via `bin/drive-chain.py`, watches the live event stream, posts Telegram updates at session start, each iteration boundary (commit + per-iter spend + cumulative), every rate-limit pause/resume, supervisor escalation, and session end. Honors a `--max-budget-usd` halt and a `--max-cycles` halt independently of the chain's own loop count. Distinct from sst-manager (cron-based, multi-project, periodic) and from sst-skill-router (in-process planner inside one user request). The proprietary counterpart supplies the watched-chain name, Telegram chat ID, and budget defaults.

From the source SKILL.md

The chain driver is the missing top-level role between sst-manager (cadence-based, cross-project, reactive) and bin/skill-chain.py (the chain runner itself). It is invoked once per multi-iteration session, runs FOR THE WHOLE DURATION of that session, and posts Telegram updates as events fire so the user can supervise a long autonomous run from their phone.

What this skill does

Sst Chain Driver is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the engineering-misc sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/sst-chain-driver/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
