Runtime

The Looping Louie runtime is a worker process that executes queued Pipeline runs in explicitly configured local Git checkouts. It maps Projects to local repositories, advertises available Harnesses, claims compatible work, and returns checkpoint results to the API.

The runtime collects repository context, applies API-approved file operations, invokes selected local Harnesses, gathers review input, and performs only API-authorized commits. It never accepts a checkout path from an API response.

The API remains the source of truth for scheduling, model decisions, and durable run state. The runtime owns machine-local configuration, repository access, local executables, and credentials.
