Summary
Addy Osmani describes how he applies loop engineering day to day with Claude Code’s two primitives: /goal, which drives a single bounded task until a verifiable condition is met, and /loop, which re-runs a prompt on a fixed interval like a cron job. Drawing on the Claude Code team’s four-way classification of loops (turn-based, goal-based, time-based and proactive), he covers combining the two, separating the agent that makes a change from the one that checks it, what to delegate versus watch closely, the PR-triage workflow he runs on his Agent Skills repository, and the tasks loops are a poor fit for.
