Aren't the loops the wrong way round in the diagram. The tightest loop is the inference loop, then the tool loop and then human loop?

I think of them from the outside in, so that's why I illustrated it that way.

You are absolutely correct. It's an i18n/l10n issue. They spin in the opposite direction in the other hemisphere.

there are more than 3: https://www.latent.space/p/loopcraft

The issue I have with loops is that for truly complex work, where I care about building a generalized solution for a complex problem, the agents frequently reward hack and end up burning indefinitely without finishing until I step in.

Curious how you're addressing this
