Agent looping replaces step-by-step prompting by having AI agents cycle through discovery, planning, execution, and verification autonomously, with open loops allowing exploratory freedom and closed loops following bounded, human-designed paths. Open agent loops burn excessive tokens and risk producing low-quality output for most budgets, making closed looping the practical choice for production work today.
