Loop engineering is the shift from prompting Claude Code or Codex one task at a time to designing systems that prompt, check, retry, and stop on their own. In this video, I break down what a loop actually is (and why it's not just a cron job), the five building blocks — automations, worktrees, skills, connectors, and sub-agents — plus the two traps that kill loops: fuzzy goals and runaway token costs. By the end, you'll know when to prompt, when to loop, and how to stay the engineer either way. #loop #agents #loopengineering
