Loop Engineering

The newest piece of the agent puzzle: designing the act-check-repeat loop so the AI corrects itself instead of confidently finishing wrong. A practical look at a term still settling.

1. Act, Check, Repeat Why the act-check-repeat loop, not the single answer, is the real unit of AI work - and where one-shot prompting quietly breaks down.
2. Designing a Good Loop The three ingredients that make an agent's loop self-correcting: a goal it can verify, feedback it can act on, and a clear condition for stopping.
3. A New Term, Honestly Where 'loop engineering' came from, how it sits next to prompt and context engineering, and which parts of the term are still genuinely up for grabs.
