# Loopy

> Loop-driven interactive coding agent CLI for Java developers

## Overview

Loopy is where the lab's thesis becomes a product. It's an interactive coding agent CLI built on Spring AI that embodies **knowledge-directed execution** — giving the agent curated knowledge and structured workflows instead of relying on prompt engineering alone.

## Key Features

* **Embedded agent loop** — Built on Agent Workflow for reliable execution
* **Domain skills** — Modular, curated capabilities (Spring Boot, testing, migration)
* **Modern TUI** — Terminal user interface with real-time agent feedback
* **Forge lifecycle** — Define → Forge → Run → Grow workflow customization

## Why Loopy?

Most coding agents are generic. Loopy is opinionated — it ships with curated knowledge about Java/Spring development, structured as skills that guide the agent's tool selection and execution strategy. The result: more reliable completions with fewer wasted tokens.
