keep-going

A Claude Code mod that retries a turn that died on a transient API error and resumes the work when your usage limit resets, so a long session does not wait for someone to type "continue".

keep-going: retry 2/4 in 0:45 [ cancel ]
keep-going: resuming at reset in 1h 12m [ cancel ]
keep-going: not retrying: authentication failed.

Why

Long sessions die on errors that would have passed a minute later, and the work then sits until a person comes back:

  • The 2026 wave of API errors: #46987, #62123 and #69238, about 400 👍 and 300 comments together (checked 2026-10-06). Stream idle timeouts, 529 overloaded, 500s and connection resets end the turn, and someone has to type "continue".
  • Reddit: "API Error: 500 again", at least 990 upvotes.
  • Auto-continue after the limit reset: #13354, 208 👍. When the 5-hour window runs out at night, nothing resumes the task at the reset.

Claude Code already retries a single request several times. keep-going works one level up: when the whole turn has failed, it waits and asks the model to continue from where it stopped.

What it does

Turn ended withkeep-going does
5xx, 529 overloaded, a timeout, stream idle timeout, connection reset (ECONN*), "tool call could not be parsed"Retries after 30s, 60s, 120s, 240s, at most maxRetries in a row
Usage limit, with a used-up 5h or 7d windowResumes one minute after that window resets
429 with no used-up window (a short request rate limit)Retries with the same backoff
Auth failure, billing, 400 invalid request, context too long, an error it cannot nameNothing; a toast says why
You pressed Esc, or the model refusedNothing

The retry prompt is: "The previous request failed with a transient API error (overloaded (529)). Continue the task from where you stopped; do not repeat finished steps." The resume prompt says the same about the limit reset.

While a retry or resume is pending:

  • The band above the prompt counts down and has a cancel button (or the status line shows the countdown, see display).
  • Anything you type cancels it and resets the count. /keep-going itself does not.
  • A successful turn resets the count and drops anything pending.

/keep-going prints the state and this session's history. /keep-going off, on and cancel do what they say.

Install

You need Claude Code with mods (function hooks); tested on 2.1.285 and 2.1.291. Mods are in early access: if the CLI says hooks modules are not turned on, start it as CLAUDE_CODE_ENABLE_FUNCTION_HOOKS=1 claude.

From the marketplace in this repo:

/plugin marketplace add Jvrd97/claude-keep-going
/plugin install keep-going@keep-going

Or straight from disk, for one session:

git clone https://github.com/Jvrd97/claude-keep-going.git
claude --plugin-dir ./claude-keep-going

Settings

Change them in /config under the plugin, or in settings.json under pluginConfigs:

FieldDefaultMeaning
maxRetries4Retries in a row after transient errors. 0 turns retries off
maxPerSession20Hard cap on retries and resumes sent in one session
resumeAfterLimittrueResume one minute after a used-up window resets
displaybandband draws the countdown with a cancel button above the prompt; status writes it to the status line

How it works

  • classic.StopFailure gives the error kind the engine assigned (server_error, rate_limit, authentication_failed, ...). session.append gives the text of the error row the engine writes in the model's place ("API Error: 529 ..."); only rows stamped with the engine's <synthetic> model are read, never the model's own words. The two can arrive in either order, so the verdict waits up to 2 seconds for them, and falls back to the turn's final text.
  • turn.complete with reason: 'error' on the main loop starts the decision. Subagent turns, aborted and refusal are ignored.
  • The retry is a prompt queued with $.prompt.submit. The model sees it as a message from the keep-going plugin, and the transcript names the plugin.
  • $.clock.after holds the timer. When it fires while another turn is running, it checks again every 5 seconds and sends only once the session is idle.
  • prompt.submit from the composer, the Remote Control bridge or the SDK host counts as you typing. Prompts from plugins, notifications and peers do not.
  • The resume time comes from $.session.usage(): the latest resetsAt among windows at 100%, plus 60 seconds.
  • State (pending retry, counters, history of the last 50 events) lives in the session's $.state. The mod writes no files and makes no network calls.

What it cannot do:

  • It cannot produce a real API error on demand, so the retry path is covered by tests with a mocked clock, not by a live failure. The fatal path was seen live: an expired OAuth session was classified as "authentication failed" and not retried.
  • A hot reload of the module, /clear and the end of the session cancel a pending retry: the engine drops the module's timers with the old module, and the history records it. A claude -p run ends with its turn, so it never waits for a retry.
  • It reads windows from the last API response. If no window shows 100% when a limit error arrives, it treats the error as a short rate limit and retries with backoff instead of waiting for the reset.
  • The classification is pattern matching on the error kind and text. An error worded in a way it does not know is treated as fatal and only toasted, which is the safe side.
  • A retry continues the conversation as it stands. If the failure cut a tool call in half, the model sees that and decides what to redo; the prompt asks it not to repeat finished steps, but it is still the model's call.

Develop

Inside Claude Code run /plugin-types .claude/types once: it writes the API types tsc reads. Then:

tsc -p .
claude plugin validate .claude-plugin/plugin.json
claude plugin test .

По-русски

Мод повторяет ход, который упал на временной ошибке API (500, 529 overloaded, таймаут, обрыв соединения), чтобы никому не приходилось писать «continue».

  • Повторы идут с паузой 30, 60, 120 и 240 секунд, не больше maxRetries подряд и maxPerSession за сессию.
  • Если кончился 5-часовой или недельный лимит, мод продолжает работу через минуту после сброса окна.
  • Ошибки авторизации, неверный запрос и переполненный контекст не повторяются: приходит уведомление с причиной.
  • Над полем ввода идёт обратный отсчёт с кнопкой отмены. Любой ваш ввод отменяет повтор.

/keep-going показывает состояние и историю, /keep-going off|on|cancel управляет модом. Мод ничего не отправляет в сеть и не пишет файлы.
