I wanted to completely eliminate the constant cognitive overhead of switching back and forth between writing code, running local unit tests, and managing Git streams during rapid development cycles.
To solve this friction point, I built ShadowLoop AI under the Voxana AI ecosystem. It's a minimal, zero-cost background daemon utilizing the Watchdog engine.
An open-source background daemon that watches local workspaces via the Watchdog engine, fires unit test suites instantly on file-save, and autonomously auto-commits to Git ONLY on green validation passes. Zero-cost, lightweight developer productivity tool supporting dynamic path targeting and custom test flags (pytest, unittest).
