A cheeky take on graph engineering

A tongue-in-cheek take on “graph engineering”: it sounds like it mostly boils down to LangGraph.
The quoted thread contrasts loops and graphs for agent execution: in a loop, the agent owns the path while you define the goal and quality bar; in a graph, you predefine the steps and routes. It uses SEO article writing as the example, where a loop lets the agent iterate until it meets the brief, while a graph makes the workflow explicit in advance.
