We talk a lot about how important it is to set up self-verification loops. Especially in the age of powerful models that can run for long periods of time, self-verification is a key ingredient that enables the model to run for much longer, delivering a result that is closer to what you intended, so you can do more without having to constantly check in on Claude as it works.
@delba_oliveira gives a great breakdown of what that looks like and why it matters
ClaudeDevs (@ClaudeDevs): How do you get Claude Code to check its own work before handing it back?
Watch how you can encode your manual checks so Claude closes its own feedback loop:

Analysis of 1,250 papers on recursive self-improvement in AI reveals that the evaluator signal is the critical bottleneck. Models improve reliably only with strong, trustable signals like proof checkers, while weak signals cause loops to collapse or reinforce errors.
