UnverifiedWhen implementing ReAct in engineering, you must set a maximum number of loop steps to prevent infinite loops, Observation should be truncated or summarized to control context length, and a fallback strategy for when tool calls fail must be handled.74% similarUnverifiedIn actual engineering, a maximum number of iterations (Max Iterations) is typically set for the ReAct loop to prevent the Agent from entering an infinite loop or consuming excessive resources73% similarUnverifiedThe ReAct loop may fall into deadlock or ineffective retries, so the Harness needs to set a maximum number of steps and failure criteria.72% similarUnverifiedAgents in the ReAct framework need to repeatedly perform think–act–observe cycles to complete tasks, and a moderately complex task may require 5 to 20 or more iterations.71% similarUnverifiedWhen troubleshooting an infinite loop in which an agent repeatedly calls the same tool, the first thing to check is whether the tool-selection state is reset after the tool returns; in multi-agent orchestration, the lifecycle of each agent's control state should be made explicit to avoid state leakage.70% similar
