Where an agent loop runs, how it fails, and how to build durable sessions
tempNull · reddit · 2026-09-25
A long-form engineering post by Samagra breaks down where agent loops actually run, the ways they fail, and how to make sessions durable.
Key points:
- Trade-offs of running agent loops in-process vs. as separate services vs. in the cloud
- Common failure modes: process crashes, lost context, inconsistent state interrupting tasks
- Design patterns for durable sessions: externalized state, resumable execution points, cross-process recovery
A practical reference for anyone building production-grade agent systems.
