From Loop to Graph Engineering: Evolution, Insights, and Practical Implementation

The article analyzes the shift from single‑loop engineering to graph engineering, exposing the pitfalls of optimizing a single metric such as overfitting and Goodhart’s law, and demonstrates how multi‑loop supervision, anchored by anchors, frozen nodes, and external judgment, can produce more reliable AI agents, illustrated with a text‑classification case study.
