Loop Engineering just changed what’s possible with Hermes agents.
Most people assume the breakthrough is autonomous agents.
It isn’t.
The real breakthrough is removing humans from the execution loop while keeping quality control intact.
Instead of supervising every step, you define the objective once and let the system determine the path to completion.
The best agent systems share a few common characteristics:
Goals are defined clearly, not step-by-step instructions.
Verification gates prevent tasks from being marked complete before they meet the required standard.
Persistent memory keeps important context outside the model’s limited context window.
Builders and reviewers operate independently, creating a built-in adversarial process for higher quality outputs.
Every completed workflow becomes training data for future workflows, allowing Hermes to continuously improve its skills over time.
This is the shift most people are missing.
Prompt engineering focuses on improving instructions.
Loop engineering focuses on improving outcomes.
The strongest agent systems are not powered by better prompts. They are powered by deterministic workflows, measurable success criteria, persistent memory, and rigorous verification.
An agent becomes truly useful when it can evaluate its own work, identify failures, and correct them before a human ever gets involved.
The future of AI isn’t agents that can generate.
It’s agents that can verify, adapt, and improve.

Could you share more on the process, Alex?
Which tool do you use to animate your designs ?
I’ve created a Local Secret project to share local places with everybody else, hidden jams that you can find only in there.
I used Claude to brainstorm ideas, prompts, tools to use before jumping into Figma. And I used free plan for it.
After above, I’ve prepared 9 prompts that should give me the final result in #Figmamake but in reality it took me 72 prompts and almost 13,000 tokens for AI.
I’ve also connected Supabase for backend memory and Github for saving the code. It’s incredible what you can do!
With next iteration, I’ll fix the uploading of photos, however your secrets can be already shared with everybody.
Link is here
for limited time while this competition is on 🫶 #ConfigMakeathon and @figma
also you can check the file how it was created 😜 https://www.figma.com/make/31kRzc6pePdxdoTaRi0OdS/Local-Secret?t=X8Zuoi6Gh7Pvn8t4-1
I wanted to share in community but because it’s connected to Supabase, it’s not possible, so just a link for you to the file.
you can also find my app for freelancers on App Store called stePlan 🤘 Thank you for being an awesome community!
The simplicity here is what makes it powerful. Clean work.
