LOOP ENGINEERING HACK!

Think you can ship a self-directing agent in a day? Prove it.

tokens& is bringing together SF's builders to dive into loop engineering — agents that plan, act, observe, and self-correct across the full build cycle, from spec to implementation to testing and iteration. Build something scrappy-but-real and demo it to a room full of people who build for a living.
