AI Agent Loops Forever on Replit
Your AI agent continuously loops without reaching a goal, consuming resources and never terminating. Agent runs infinitely instead of completing.
Insufficient loop detection and termination conditions cause runaway agents.
Common Causes
- No maximum iteration limit set
- Goal condition never satisfied
- Agent stuck in repeating state/action cycle
- Invalid action response causing retry loop
- Memory/context not updated preventing progress
How to Fix It
Set max_iterations limit (e.g., 10-20). Implement timeout: if loop_duration > 30s, stop. Check goal condition logic for logic errors. Log each iteration to identify cycling pattern. Implement action validation - reject invalid/repeated actions. Provide feedback mechanism so agent can adjust strategy.
Real developers can help you.

Solo dev shipping production apps with AI-assisted development. I specialize in rescuing broken Lovable/Bolt/Cursor builds and taking them to production. 10+ apps shipped including SaaS CRMs, gaming platforms, real estate tools, and Discord bots. Stack: Next.js 16, TypeScript, Tailwind CSS, FastAPI, PostgreSQL, Prisma. I use Claude Code with 50+ custom skills for rapid delivery. Average turnaround: 2-4 weeks from broken prototype to production.

Jacek Rozanski
Senior PHP/Symfony developer and DevOps engineer with 20+ years of professional experience, running opcode.pl (web development agency, est. 2004).
Day job: I'm the sole backend developer at merketing company where I own and maintain 11 PHP/Symfony microservices on AWS (ECS Fargate, RDS, S3, CloudFront), handle the full CI/CD pipeline (Bitbucket Pipelines, Docker), and manage monitoring with Sentry and CloudWatch. These services handle high request volumes in production every month.
What I bring to AI-built apps:
- I audit and fix security issues (OWASP methodology), performance bottlenecks, and architectural problems in codebases generated by Cursor, Claude Code, Lovable, Bolt, and v0
- I refactor AI-generated prototypes into production-grade applications with proper error handling, testing, and clean architecture (SOLID, DDD, hexagonal architecture)
- I set up the infrastructure AI tools don't touch: AWS hosting, CI/CD pipelines, automated deployments, database optimization, monitoring, and alerting
- I integrate external services: payment providers, email systems, partner APIs, SSO/auth
Tech stack: PHP 8.x, Symfony, React, Next.js, PostgreSQL, MySQL, Docker, AWS (ECS, RDS, S3, SQS/SNS, CloudFront), Terraform, Supabase. I also use AI tools daily (Claude Code, Cursor) in my own workflow, so I understand both the strengths and the gaps in AI-generated code.
Based in Poland (CET timezone). Available for async work and calls during EU/US business hours.
You don't need to be technical. Just describe what's wrong and a verified developer will handle the rest.

What's a reasonable max iteration limit?
10-20 iterations for most agents. Higher = longer response time
How do I detect cycling?
Track previous actions/states. Reject if same action repeated N times
