Loop Detection

Logic that notices when an agent is repeating the same action or getting the same result over and over, so the system can break out instead of burning budget indefinitely.

Example: An agent stuck calling the same failing search query five times in a row gets flagged and stopped rather than trying a sixth.

• often confused with Termination ConditionBoth stop an agent from running forever, but a termination condition is a rule set in advance while loop detection catches actual repeated behavior at runtime.
