Developer details autonomous Claude Code agent setup on Mac Mini

A developer has detailed a method for creating an autonomous AI agent using Claude Code on a Mac Mini M4. The setup involves configuring the machine to remain awake, defining the agent's identity and goals through a CLAUDE.md file, and scheduling tasks to run automatically. For interactions beyond file and code manipulation, the agent is integrated with Make.com, and memory is managed through a simple folder of markdown files. AI
