Day 8 of Green, Efficient AI is live — Right-Size the Agentic Loop.

Day 8 of Green, Efficient AI is live — Right-Size the Agentic Loop.

A team built an agent to triage bug reports. They expected it to cost about fourteen times a single call.

It cost several times more than that.

Nothing was broken. By turn twelve, the agent was re-sending every search, every file, and every line of its own reasoning — at full price, on every turn. Most of its tokens weren’t spent solving the bug. They were spent re-reading the loop.

A call pays once. A loop pays for everything it remembers, on every turn it takes.

How to right-size it, in today’s issue.
