The article introduces 'Loop Engineering' to address the paradox where AI-assisted coding speeds up generation but increases human verification burden. It outlines four core loops focusing on distinguishing capability from reliability, making specifications checkable, and preparing agents with usable context. The methodology aims to preserve human judgment by organizing evidence for review and enforcing stopping rules, ensuring automation efficiency does not compromise final code quality.

    • The bottleneck in AI coding has shifted from generation speed to the cost of human understanding and verification, requiring processes that protect attention.
    • Implementing 'Loop Engineering' involves distinguishing model capability from delivery reliability, translating specs into independent checks and enforced stopping rules.
    • Optimizing agent context supply and error detection enables rapid iteration of code candidates while preserving high-quality evidence for human review.
