Anthropic engineers have demonstrated that iterative agent loops, which allow AI models to self-correct through repeated prompting, significantly improve task performance but increase token costs by u…
A growing consensus among AI coding tool users advocates for writing loops instead of prompts, shifting from manual agent steering to designing systems that automate repetitive tasks. The approach aim…
Spraay, an x402 payment gateway with 170+ endpoints across 16 chains, has been made loop-native to support autonomous agent loops. The gateway now allows agents to pass a callback URL on requests, eli…
Boris Cherny describes a growing trend of developers building harness-level loops on top of coding agents, where tasks persist beyond a single agent session. He expresses concern that this approach am…
Claude Code creator Boris Cherny told Meta's @Scale conference that AI loops are 'for real,' describing a shift from hand-written code to agents prompting agents that continuously improve code archite…
Boris Cherny, the builder of Claude Code, stated in June 2026 that he no longer writes prompts for Claude, instead using loops that have replaced prompt engineering. This shift highlights a new paradi…
Anthropic shipped artifacts in Claude Code on June 18, enabling coding sessions to generate live, interactive web pages at private URLs. The feature, available in beta on Team and Enterprise plans, in…
LoopFlow, a new open-source tool, turns Claude Code into a self-running system by allowing developers to define goals, agent pipelines, and verification gates in a YAML file. It addresses key issues l…
Engineers from Anthropic and OpenAI are adopting 'loop engineering' for AI agents, replacing individual prompts with recurring orchestration loops that set goals, invoke agents, check outputs, and re-…
AI leaders including Claude Code creator Boris Cherny and OpenAI engineer Peter Steinberger are championing 'loop engineering' over traditional prompt engineering, designing recurring systems that let…
In May 2026, the Bun team rewrote its entire runtime from Zig to Rust in six days using AI agents, converting approximately 570,000 lines of Zig into 682,000 lines of Rust. The migration achieved a 99…
Boris Cherny, creator of Claude Code, says he no longer prompts Claude directly, instead using loops that prompt the agent and figure out what to do. Anthropic's research supports this shift, where ag…
Anthropic paused a planned billing overhaul for its Claude Agent SDK on June 15, 2026, after developer backlash over proposed tiered credits that would have replaced subscription-based usage. The reve…
MagmaLabs engineer Ben Sheldon describes how he built an automated loop that fixed a failing spec in Forge, the company's Rails 8 virtual employee platform, without manual prompting. The concept, call…
Anthropic paused a planned billing change for its Claude Agent SDK that would have shifted developers from subscription-based pricing to pay-per-token API rates, after heavy users warned of massive co…
Boris Cherny, creator of Claude Code at Anthropic, revealed at a private WorkOS event on June 2, 2026, that he no longer prompts Claude directly but instead writes loops that prompt the agent. Peter S…
A developer traces the rapid evolution of LLM interaction techniques from 'prompt engineering' to 'context engineering' to 'harness engineering,' where models autonomously iterate and learn. The post …
Loopy, a local terminal meta-agent that watches Claude Code and Codex sessions to identify repetitive patterns and propose automation loops, has been released. The tool aims to help developers shift f…
Anthropic released Claude Code v2.1.172 on June 10, allowing sub-agents to spawn their own sub-agents up to five levels deep, a change from the previous two-year ban. The feature aims to isolate noisy…
Loop engineering is emerging as a new paradigm for working with coding agents, where developers design recursive systems that autonomously prompt agents rather than writing prompts manually. Industry …
