How can you stop your model from looping
Summary
Users report that AI models, including Qwen 3.6 35B, enter infinite loops when integrated with Copilot Chat or Hermes, generating excessive tokens or incorrect tool calls.

I need a model that gets stuck in loops.
A developer seeks a model that frequently gets stuck in loops (e.g., GLM Flash) to test loop detection and recovery features for an agent, aiming to develop heuristics that score loop probability and enable backtracking.
20B Looping model (paper) matches or beats Qwen3 Coder 30B at 10% of pre-training tokens

Laguna-S-2.1 "thinking forever" loops seem to be a quantization artifact
The article reports that infinite thinking loops in Laguna S 2.1 AI model are likely caused by quantization artifacts. Switching to an MoE-aware APEX quant (e.g., Myric/Laguna-S-2.1-APEX-GGUF) and using default sampling settings (temp 0.7, top_p 0.95, top_k 20) resolved the looping for most cases. Additionally, framing prompts around tool calls can prevent overthinking.
