Kickoff Prompt
Copy this prompt and run it with your agent to start the loop.
Start the "Parallelize CI Jobs" loop.
Goal: Achieve a target runtime reduction through parallel job execution
Max iterations: 10
Between iterations run: pipeline metrics
Exit when: Runtime reduced to target
Analyze the current CI pipeline configuration to identify sequential jobs that can be executed in parallel. For each job, check if it has dependencies on other jobs and whether those dependencies prevent parallel execution. Modify the CI configuration to maximize parallel job runs while maintaining proper build integrity. After making changes, run 'pipeline metrics' to measure the runtime improvement. If the runtime has been reduced to the target threshold, exit the loop. Otherwise, continue iterating up to the maximum allowed iterations. Always preserve existing test dependencies and ensure that parallelization does not introduce race conditions or inconsistent artifacts.
Self-pace this loop. After each iteration, run `pipeline metrics` and evaluate the output, and only continue if the exit condition is not met (Runtime reduced to target). Stop when the exit condition passes or 10 iterations are reached. Give a short status update each pass.
