At it's core, an agent is a loop that forms, tests, and validates a hypothesis.
That is the idea Chapter 9 of Claude Code Beyond the Prompt explores: once each result becomes evidence for the next decision, you're running an agentic loop in practice.
To keep things simple, Chapter 9 groups the work into three parts: Gather, Act and Verify.
Once the agent has a result, you still have to decide whether it supports what you were trying to establish.
This is why agentic engineering is more than advanced prompting. It is about understanding the capabilities and limits of agentic systems and what an agent is actually doing while it works.
