cobusgreyling/loop-engineering Names a Discipline — Patterns and CLI Tools for Systems That Prompt and Orchestrate Agents

GitHub·medium signal

This repo (~9.2K stars, JavaScript) packages practical patterns, starter templates and CLI tools under the banner of 'loop engineering,' crediting Addy Osmani and Boris Cherny as influences. The claim is that the unit of work has moved from the prompt to the loop: systems that prompt and orchestrate other agents. Naming matters for adoption — 'context engineering' went from a tweet to a repo topic in months, and loop engineering is making the same bid for the orchestration layer above it.
