Core syntax — the five decisionsThe engine. Objective, context, actions, verification, stopping — plus the cycle that drives them, and where a human steps in.
The five decisions
goalObjective — what "done" means, in plain language.look atContext — scope what the agent reads first.allow / ask me beforeActions — auto vs confirm.done whenVerification — how a loop proves itself.when … (transitions)Stopping — rules evaluated after each observe.after N tries (thrash guard)Stopping — stop & warn if it gets stuck.
The cycle
Human-in-the-loop
The rest of the syntaxEverything that composes loops into bigger workflows or configures a run — none of it changes how a single loop thinks.
