Technical Definition
An agentic loop is a cycle where an agent observes, reasons, acts, and receives feedback until a set goal is met.
How it works
An agentic loop describes the iterative process an AI agent follows to accomplish a task. It involves observing the current state, reasoning about the best course of action, acting upon that decision, and then incorporating feedback to refine subsequent steps until a termination condition, like task completion, is met.
