Shifting Agents from One-Off Tasks to Continuous Responses
zeeg · x · 2026-07-17
This article explores a goal behind building a "subscription" concept in Junior: after an agent creates a pull request, it shouldn't just complete a one-off task but should continue to passively or actively monitor subsequent changes, acting as a proactive agent.
The core idea is to evolve agents from a "do it and leave" model to one that continuously responds to new events within the same workflow, thereby covering more development and collaboration scenarios.
