The Night Shift

# The Night Shift

You don't need forty AI tools to keep up. You're not behind. You just need a few that run
while you sleep.

Every night, mine do. While I'm out cold, a handful of scheduled jobs wake up around 3am and
work headless. One repairs whatever broke that day. One studies my system and files everything
it learned. One heals the jobs that failed. By morning the work is done, and I never touched a
key. Forty tools I chased did nothing; three that run overnight did everything.

The Night Shift is that exact stack, packaged so you can point it at your own setup.

Three scheduled jobs, their crontab, and a one-line install:

- auto-repair — reads your fix/flag backlog and applies only safe, reversible fixes
(bounded to a handful per night). It never pushes, deploys, or deletes — anything risky gets
routed to you instead. *Repairs whatever broke that day.*
- os-evolve — senses what changed, mines it for real improvements with evidence, applies
the safe ones (build-capped), and asks before anything risky. Every change is shadow-copied
and reversible. *Studies your system and files everything it learned.*
- self-heal / manager-loop — re-runs the flagged jobs that failed, with a separate verifier
confirming each fix before it counts. *Heals the jobs that failed.*

The whole reason it's safe to leave running while you sleep: every job can only ever do
bounded, reversible work, maker never equals checker, and nothing irreversible runs unattended.

1. Read SAFETY.md — the boundaries are the point.
2. Drop the three job docs into your agent's skills/rules folder.
3. crontab night-shift.crontab (edit the paths + hours first).
4. Watch one night go by. Read the morning summary each job pings you.
