@cellinlab: Loop Engineering is replacing the practice of personally writing prompts for agents. Its core idea: you no longer prompt the agent directly, but design a system that prompts the agent.
Summary
Loop Engineering is replacing the direct way of writing prompts for agents, focusing on designing a system to write prompts for the agent.

Loop Engineering is replacing the practice of “writing prompts for agents yourself.”
Its core idea: instead of directly prompting an agent, you design a system that prompts the agent. https://t.co/HD07OSoKVP

This article introduces the concept of Loop Engineering — instead of directly writing prompts for AI agents, it designs a system (loop) that recursively lets the agent iterate on tasks until completion. The article provides a detailed comparison of how Claude Code and Codex implement five building blocks: automations, worktrees, skills, sub-agents, etc. It suggests this could be the future trend of collaborating with coding agents, but also warns about token costs and AI slop issues.
@aronhouyu: Loop Engineering - Many people still use Claude Code, Codex, or Cursor like a chatbot: drop a prompt → wait for response → copy it out → fix bugs → drop a new prompt... cycle...
Loop Engineering is a new methodology and open-source toolkit that replaces manual prompting of AI coding agents with automated loops. It provides pre-built patterns and CLI tools for tasks like PR review, CI checks, and dependency updates, enabling developers to design systems that autonomously direct agents.

This article explores the view that in the Agent era, Loop Engineering is more important than Prompt Engineering. The author believes that the core capability of an AI Agent lies not in the model itself, but in the feedback loop system built around the model, which determines whether the Agent can continuously improve and approach the correct answer.
@cxjwin: Found a very practical website collecting various ready-made Agent Loop templates. Core idea: stop manually prompting all the time; design the loop so the agent runs the task on its own. It includes Test Until Green, Fix CI Until G…
Shared a practical website that collects ready-made Agent Loop templates. The core idea is to let the AI agent automatically complete tasks. It includes common loops like Test Until Green, and is suitable for use with Claude Code and Cursor.

The article declares Prompt Engineering dead, proposes Loop Engineering as the new paradigm for AI development in 2026, emphasizes designing autonomous loop systems (Plan-Execute-Verify-Iterate) to let agents autonomously complete complex workflows, and provides practical examples and a getting-started approach.
