Loop

an agent repeating cycles of work until a stop condition is met.

What the hell is a loop, anyway? https://x.com/aparnadhinak/status/2073492320159510869

Only 4 types exist, and each one hands off a different piece of your job: https://x.com/PrajwalTomar_/status/2074424941286719706

1. → Turn-based: hands off the checking. Skills verify the work end to end
2. → Goal-based: hands off the stop condition. /goal keeps it going until done is DONE
3. → Time-based: hands off the trigger. /loop 5m fixes your PR while you work
4. → Proactive: hands off the prompt itself. It runs while you sleep
