Experiment Loop Pattern

Overview

The experiment loop is a systematic approach to iterative code improvement where each change is measured against a baseline metric and kept only if it improves the result. Inspired by karpathy/autoresearch and generalized for any measurable code quality metric.

The Core Pattern

1. DEFINE    → Choose a measurable metric and set constraints
2. BASELINE  → Measure the current state
3. MODIFY    → Make one targeted change
4. MEASURE   → Re-evaluate the metric
5. DECIDE    → Keep if improved, revert if not
6. LOG       → Record what was tried and the outcome
7. REPEAT    → Go to step 3 (until done or plateau)
