AI can generate the pieces.
Festival keeps the work coherent.
Loop engineering for AI-assisted work: build repeatable planning, execution, review, and handoff loops that keep moving after the first prompt.
fest watch on a real festival. fest breaks a long-running, complex, or highly specific goal into structured work and drives it to completion.
How it works
Toolsuite made for human AI collaboration at any scale.
Create your workspace
One command scaffolds a campaign that holds every project, plan, and doc in one place. cgo jumps you anywhere and csw switches between campaigns. That is the whole setup.
Describe the work to your agent
Open your agent of choice, Claude Code, Codex, or Grok, and describe what you want in a sentence. It creates the design, scaffolds a festival, and plans the whole thing out into phases, sequences, and tasks. You do not touch the fest CLI.
Watch the plan get built
Your agent works the fest next loop on its own, and you watch progress climb in real time as tasks complete and commit with tracking. Any session picks up exactly where the last one stopped.
Track everything in one place
Every festival, intent, design, and project across the campaign in one dashboard. Run many in parallel with different agents, and switch between them without losing the thread.
Every command, in motion
camp and fest are terminal-native. Here is what the core commands actually look like.
Festival is for AI-assisted work that has to stay coherent for months or years
Not one prompt. Not one chat. Not one coding session. Long-running work has changing goals, decisions, artifacts, reviews, next actions, and context. AI can generate pieces of the work, but it does not preserve the structure needed to finish the whole thing. Festival keeps that structure intact.
Ambitious builds fall apart without a plan
Festival breaks complex goals into phases, sequences, and tasks. Every step is structured and scoped for AI execution.
Multi-project coordination is chaos
Campaigns give you one workspace for all your repos, docs, and plans. cgo navigates instantly. Nothing bleeds between projects.
Agents lose context between sessions
All state lives in the filesystem. fest next gives any agent the full picture, any time, no re-explaining.
Scaling past one feature at a time
Run multiple festivals in parallel across projects. Track progress, enforce quality gates, and ship at scale.
Works with any AI coding tool
Use Festival where AI work loses context
Start with the workflow problem you are trying to solve, then move into the installation and command reference once the fit is clear.
AI agent project management
Give agents goals, phases, tasks, status, and verification they can read from the workspace.

Keep multi-day or multi-week implementation work coherent across context windows and interruptions.
Read the use case →AI agent handoff
Let a new agent, model, or human reviewer resume from the actual next step.
