The article is describing how every harness functions. If you're already using Codex, Claude Code, or Antigravity then you're already doing this. And you get a lot of usage. I generally don't hit my limits with GPT if I stick to reviews of code that cheaper models create. Google gives you a low number of free requests. OpenCode has a generous free tier for open source models (and a plan that is $5 / month for the first month.)

The article describes API calls using code. How does one use these loops in Claude Code (assuming you mean CLI not cloud) or Antigravity (assuming you mean agy not the IDE)?

  The article is describing how agents work. You can either read it only to gain that understanding, or read it because you’re trying to build your own version of Claude Code. “How can we use these loops in Claude Code?” doesn’t make any sense.

    Oh, interesting. So am I understanding correctly then that the tools that come with monthly subscriptions are inherently limited and unable to expand to what the article describes in the outermost loops?

      Are you asking if it’s possible to add custom tools to CC/Codex which it can then use? If not, please clarify what you mean.

      You should just read more about this stuff and try using it. The high-level questions you are asking suggest you don't yet have a great base-level understanding of the concepts.

        So going allllll the way back up to my original message where I asked for more resources to read… yeah I think you might be onto something.

      Depending on what kind of "loop" you're talking about, the answer is yes or no depending on the harness. For example Claude Code already has some relatively sophisticated features for managing automated loops of doing stuff (and really don't overcomplicate it -- a loop is just doing something over and over). And there's the meme of running `while true ; do claude < prompt.txt ; done` as your agentic coding framework. And there are also plugins for Claude Code such as https://claude.com/plugins/ralph-loop https://claude.com/plugins/ralph-loop. So yes by default Claude Code doesn't include some kind of 5-layer meta-hyper-meta-looper thing. But that's not what the article is about anyway... it's just describing how agent harnesses work and how humans typically interact with them, without using that layered meta-looping stuff.

        I must have taken the article too literally. Thanks for taking the time to help me understand. It’s also hard to tell what’s a joke these days surrounding a lot of AI “best practices” and what’s a legitimate idea worth exploring.
