Transcript

The biggest shift in Claude Code. Claude Code's founder and the guy who built Openclaw just said the stop prompting your agent and build loops. Claude Code loops. Talking about loop engineering being better than prompt engineering. So let's go through it in Claude Code. Level one is slash loops so it runs the same job on repeat and give it an interval so it can babysit your PRs or triage your inbox. Level two though is slash goal which we've you give Claude a finish line so it keeps on looping until it achieves a specific goal. But level three which is what Boris has loops that prompt other loops so you go system keeps shipping overnight. Boris's actual example of this is PR babysitting. A loop notices that a review comments came in, spawns a fresh work tree agent just to fix that comments and then that agent runs its own loop. So the outer loop is a dispatcher and the inner loop are the agents running that task. I think this is just the start of a shift in how we're designing agents. People are still understanding how best to use this comment loops. And I'll send you some best practices.
