## Key takeaways from Claude Code’s loop workflow Thariq from the Claude Code team explains how they use **/loop**, **/goal**, and **workflows** to run long-lived agent sessions differently. - Before building, ask Claude to look for **blind spots** in the plan and surface unknown unknowns in the codebase. - The team says they cut Claude Code’s **system prompt by 80%** as models got smarter and needed less direction. - Planning is described as an **iterative process** of exploring, investigating, and discovering what you don’t know. - The episode also covers a live demo of **editing launch videos with Claude** and using **HTML artifacts** to plan and learn.
