Developer explains core agent loop in agentic systems
The author breaks down the core of every agentic system into a simple five-step loop. The process involves sending messages to a model, processing its response or tool calls, executing those tools, appending the results back to the conversation history, and repeating the cycle until completion.
It is a solid and concise explanation of a foundational concept that is frequently overcomplicated by developers. It accurately distills the complexity of agentic frameworks into a basic iterative loop. It serves as an excellent starting point for those looking to understand how LLM agents function under the hood and highlights that the core logic of agents is relatively straightforward, despite complex implementations.
