Who it is forA maintainer who wants a recurring check on the default branch that turns problems into tracked work without manual searching.
The problemRegressions and Factory setup drift can go unnoticed between releases because nobody has time to scan the branch and the Factory configuration each week.
The outcomeFindings from the weekly sweep appear as new GitHub issues that the triage routine can pick up, so the loop closes without a person hunting for problems.
What you need first
- A GitHub project you control, with permission to create labels and manage its pull requests
- Claude Code installed, or Codex if you use the Codex adapter
- A clone of the addyosmani/factory repository
- Your project's real test, lint, and build commands, since the gates run them
- A human-owned docs/factory/CHARTER.md that defines scope, risk, and the review-queue limit
Steps
- Install the Factory and confirm
.factory/scripts/doctor.shreports no open gaps. - Configure the weekly monitor routine supplied by the repository for Claude cloud routines.
- Let the sweep run and file its findings as GitHub issues.
- Check the new issues in
/factoryand confirm the triage routine labels them. - Adjust constraints with
/factory-tunewhen the monthly review suggests changes.
Prompt for your agent
For the factory installed in <target-repo>, run the monitor stage once and report the issues it would file. Expected output: a list of proposed issue titles and the default-branch or setup finding behind each. Verify that the stage lists findings before filing any issue.
Caveat. The README says the Factory has no background process and that each routine starts fresh and stops, so the weekly sweep only runs when its Claude routine is configured and scheduled.
