The /loop command which is supposed to be the equivilant to heartbeat.md is EXTREMELY unreliable/shitty.

I use it sparingly with my guardrails project. I basically tell it to:

Check any tasks if it's not currently working on one, and to continue until it finishes, dismiss this reminder if it's done, and then to ensure it runs unit tests / confirms the project builds before moving on to the next one. Compact the context when it will move to the next one. Once its exhausted all remaining tasks close the loop.

Works for me for my side projects, I can leave it running for a bit until it exhausts all remaining tasks.
