@melaya_org: Inside an agent's head: 5 boring steps There is no magic. Here's the whole 'thinking' loop, demystified. Here’s the breakdown 👇 → Step 1: it writes a plan: It reads the goal, the history, its tools, then plans the next move. The shock: the plan is just text it generates, rewritten every single turn. → Step 2: it picks a tool: It doesn't do things, it writes an order: tool name plus inputs. Your software executes it. The AI is the manager, not the hands. Then the twist… → Step 3: it reads the result: The tool's answer goes back into its head, and every result reshapes the next thought, an error triggers a retry, a finding redirects the plan. Live, not scripted. → Step 4: it loops: Think, act, look, again, until done. That's the ReAct pattern: every decision grounded in fresh evidence, not one stale upfront plan. One step decides everything though… → Step 5: knowing when to stop: The loop ends on 'task done', a step limit, or a call for help. Agents without a stop rule run away, burning money as they go. Comment “MELAYA” and I’ll send you a real annotated agent trace, every thought, tool call, and result, line by line.
