UnverifiedA turn limit and a budget should be set for the Agent loop to prevent it from getting stuck in an infinite loop and to avoid runaway costs.79% similarUnverifiedDify's Agent supports configuring a maximum number of iterations, which can prevent the model from falling into infinite loops and consuming large amounts of tokens.73% similarUnverifiedIf agent loop execution lacks a maximum iteration limit and infinite-loop detection mechanism, the system will fall into an infinite loop and rapidly consume the token budget72% similarUnverifiedThe core challenges of the Agent Loop include preventing runaway loops (by setting a maximum number of steps), handling error recovery from failed tool calls, and maintaining reasoning quality without degradation over long contexts.68% similarUnverifiedThe #[MaxSteps(6)] attribute can be used to limit the maximum number of reasoning steps for an agent, preventing repeated tool calls from accumulating large amounts of tokens or falling into a loop68% similar
