Overview

Sleepless Agent is a Python daemon that wraps the Claude Code CLI through its Python Agent SDK and works through a SQLite-backed task queue. Tasks arrive from Slack slash commands or the `sle` CLI and run in isolated workspaces, and serious tasks get a feature branch and a pull request. It tracks Claude Code plan usage against day and night thresholds and can auto-generate tasks when idle.

Who it is for: Claude Code subscribers who want unattended overnight coding tasks

Strengths

  • Each task runs in its own workspace directory, so tasks can run in parallel
  • Creates feature branches and opens PRs for serious tasks via git and gh
  • Usage-aware scheduling with day (95%) and night (96%) thresholds
  • Slack is optional; the sle CLI covers every command

Weaknesses

  • Requires a Claude Code CLI login; no other model providers mentioned
  • Only one release (0.1.0, Oct 2025); roadmap items still unchecked
  • No Docker or compose files; service install is via systemd or launchd make targets
  • Must edit config.yaml (e.g. git.remote_repo_url) before first run

What it needs

  • no GPU
  • Needs Python 3.11+, Claude Code CLI (Node.js), Git, gh CLI (optional), Slack app with Socket Mode (optional), SQLite
  • Models: Claude (via Claude Code CLI)
