Use when a user wants to build an agent LOOP in Boardwalk, a workflow that iterates until a goal is reached rather than running once. Covers find/fix/verify loops, poll-until-healthy, drain-a-queue, and run-on-a-schedule maintainers. Teaches the core loop shape (plain control flow over agent()), the layered exits every loop needs (a verifier, a hard iteration cap, a budget plus usage.get() self-governing, no-progress detection), choosing the topology (one long run with while+sleep vs a recurring cron trigger of many short runs vs workflows.schedule for runtime-computed cadences), splitting the maker from the checker for verification, carrying durable state across runs, and never paying for idle wait. Pairs with boardwalk-use-cli for scaffolding, validating (boardwalk check), and running the loop.
