Iterate on tasks with Copilot CLI autopilot and fleet
The author used autopilot to iterate until done and /fleet to split work across parallel subagents, noting overhead on small tasks.

Long-running processes often face interruptions that can result in lost progress. This can lead to wasted time and resources, especially in critical tasks that require continuity. Without a reliable way to checkpoint and resume these processes, users may find themselves starting over, which is inefficient and frustrating.
Set up a system within your agent to regularly save its state, allowing it to resume from the last checkpoint in case of failure.
Create a logging mechanism that captures any errors or interruptions during the agent's run, providing insights into what went wrong.
Develop a method to automatically queue the agent for resumption after a failure, ensuring it can continue its task without manual intervention.
