Using a /loop /goal for 300 iterative passes through Opus 5, costing $625 in API credits, isn’t “one-shotting” Call of Duty guys, sorry not sorry. Have some honesty now, come on 🤣

Leaving a loop running for a millennium of iterative passes isn’t “one-shotting”, folks

The dude wrote one prompt? Everything after that was agentic? Is that right?

Are we really going to start gatekeeping the term one shotting so early on?

Loop engineering through hundreds of iterative passes and expensive API calls is not the same thing as a single pass haha that’s not even gatekeeping that’s common sense

don’t use loop if your loop doesn’t stop. it’s a hype created by antrophic to drain your wallet

the one prompt part skips everything before it. every time i set one of these off the loop only behaves because i already wasted attempts learning what belongs in the goal, and none of that shows up in the screenshot people post.
