Adaptive Loops

Self-healing and self-learning system for AI agents. Automatically recovers from errors and remembers what works.

Philosophy

"The best agent is the one that learns from its mistakes without being told."

Two Types of Loops

1. Self-Healing Loop

When a tool fails:

1. Detect error type (timeout, auth, rate limit, etc.)
2. Apply appropriate adapter (retry, rotate, proxy, etc.)
3. Retry with fix
4. Record result for future reference

2. Self-Learning Loop

After each task:

1. Record outcome (success/failure)
2. Note what worked/didn't work
3. Update trust scores for approaches
4. Apply successful patterns to future tasks

Usage

Pre-flight Check (before action)

# Check for known antipatterns
fact_store(action="reason", entities=["task_type", "past_error"])

# Check for known fixes
ls ~/.hermes/logs/adaptive/

Post-action Capture (after result)

# Record success
cd ~/.hermes/learning_loop
python3 learning.py record coding "fixed proxy issue" true "groq/llama-3.1-8b-instant" "groq"

# Record failure
python3 learning.py record system_admin "config edit failed" false "auto/best-chat" "omniroute"

Error-driven Adaptation

# Automatic error handling
core.handle_error(tool="browser", error_type="timeout", msg="Connection reset", context={})

Adaptation Strategies

Error Type	Strategy	Example
Timeout	Retry with backoff	sleep 5 && retry
Auth failure	Rotate credentials	Use different API key
Rate limit	Wait + retry	sleep 60 && retry
DPI block	Switch proxy	Hysteria2 → Tor
Model failure	Fallback model	auto/best-chat → groq

What NOT to Ask Dima

• "Can I record a fact?" → Just record it
• "Can I try an alternative?" → Just try it
• "Can I run handle_error?" → Just run it

What TO Ask Dima

• Delete files/services
• Change systemd
• Install new software (pip install)
• Modify proxy/OmniRoute config
