Loop

This is a Hermes-native loop workflow skill.

Why This Exists

loop exists for goals whose correct implementation cannot be known upfront but can be discovered through bounded cycles of definition, action, verification, and revision without confusing planned cycles with observed progress.

Do Not Use When

• The user asks for one bounded delivery cycle; use ultrawork's delivery-boundary capability instead.
• Scope and milestones are already known and only durable checkpoint/resume tracking is needed; use ultrawork's durable-checkpoint capability.
• The user gives only a north-star outcome such as revenue, stars, or adoption and has not accepted a bounded first loop goal.
• The goal is too vague to name an observable problem, next artifact, verification signal, or stop condition.
• The goal depends mainly on external waiting, adoption, revenue, or community response without observable local next actions.
• The permission profile does not allow repeated research, handoff, queue, or feedback cycles.
