A successful first run for Slartibartfast
by Maxwell Joslyn. (updated
Last night's first overnight Slartibartfast run was a success. I marked 4 issues as acceptable for it to work on, and it produced a draft pull request for each.
Tonight I whipped up a quick status monitor as an admin page on this website, so I can peek at what it's doing.
The costs shown below are not what I'm actually paying. To my knowledge, there's no straightforward way to understand how many tokens you have access to within each 5-hour Claude subscription window. Slartibartfast maintains statistics on how much work it can perform in 5 hours, then estimates both that window size and the cost per worker process, so I (and it) can eyeball how much work it can do in the remaining time. The actual stats are measured in tokens, but since those are large numbers, everything's converted to an approximate dollar cost for the end user.
