Infinite Loop Variant 5: Configuration-Driven Orchestration

Status: ✓ Complete
Generated: 2025-10-10
Location: /home/ygg/Workspace/sandbox/infinite-agents/infinite_variants/infinite_variant_5/

Overview

This variant implements a configuration-driven orchestration system with chain prompting patterns for multi-stage workflow execution. All orchestration parameters are externalized to JSON configuration files, enabling flexible, reproducible, and production-ready infinite loop execution.

Key Innovation

Configuration-Driven Architecture: Complete elimination of hardcoded values through hierarchical JSON configuration system with multi-stage validation and runtime overrides.

Chain Prompting: 7-stage workflow decomposition with XML state passing, self-correction loops, and single-task focus per stage.

Web Learning Applied

Source: https://docs.claude.com/en/docs/build-with-claude/prompt-engineering/chain-prompts

Techniques:

  1. Workflow decomposition into sequential subtasks (7 stages)
  2. State passing via XML tags between stages
  3. Self-correction loops for quality improvement
  4. Single-task focus for maximum attention per stage

Key Features

1. Configuration-Driven Architecture

  • Zero hardcoded values - all parameters externalized
  • Hierarchical merging: defaults → profile → custom → runtime
  • JSON Schema validation (schema + semantic + cross-field)
  • Multiple profiles (development, production, research)
  • Runtime overrides via inline JSON

2. Chain Prompting Implementation

  • 7-stage workflow: Load → Validate → Merge → Analyze → Plan → Execute → Validate
  • XML state passing for traceability
  • Single-task focus per stage
  • Self-correction loops
  • Expandable to 11+ stages for research

3. Configuration Profiles

Development:

  • Small batches (3), 2 agents, verbose logging
  • Review stage enabled, lower uniqueness (0.7)
  • Use: Testing, debugging, learning

Production:

  • Large batches (10), 5 agents, minimal logging
  • Review disabled, high uniqueness (0.9)
  • Use: Scale, efficiency, throughput

Research:

  • Medium batches (5), 3 agents, maximum logging
  • Review enabled, very high uniqueness (0.95)
  • 11 stages, extensive web priming (8 URLs)
  • Use: Quality, exploration, experimentation

4. Interactive Configuration Tools

  • Create: Guided configuration creation
  • Edit: Modify existing configurations
  • Compare: Side-by-side comparison
  • Optimize: Auto-optimize for use case (speed, quality, scale)
  • Merge: Combine multiple configurations

5. Validation System

  • Schema Validation: Types, constraints, enums, patterns
  • Semantic Validation: Logical consistency, value reasonableness
  • Cross-Field Validation: Relationships, compatibility, performance

Usage Examples

# Use default configuration
/project:infinite-config specs/example_spec.md output 5

# Use development profile
/project:infinite-config specs/example_spec.md output_dev 3 development

# Use production profile
/project:infinite-config specs/example_spec.md output_prod 20 production

# Use custom configuration
/project:infinite-config specs/example_spec.md output 10 custom examples/custom_config.json

# Inline overrides
/project:infinite-config specs/example_spec.md output 5 development '{"orchestration":{"max_parallel_agents":8}}'

# Validate configuration
/project:validate-config examples/custom_config.json

# Create custom configuration
/project:configure create production my_custom.json

# Compare profiles
/project:configure compare development production

# Optimize for speed
/project:configure optimize speed

Configuration Sections

  1. orchestration (6 settings) - Parallel execution, batching, timeouts
  2. generation (5 settings) - Output directory, naming, format, metadata
  3. quality (5 settings) - Uniqueness, validation, review, retries
  4. web_enhancement (7 settings) - Web learning, priming, URLs, caching
  5. logging (5 settings) - Level, verbosity, agent outputs, web fetches

Benefits

  1. Flexibility: Every parameter adjustable without code changes
  2. Reproducibility: Save and share configurations
  3. Quality: Multi-stage validation ensures correctness
  4. Scalability: Profiles optimize for different scales
  5. Maintainability: Configuration separate from logic
  6. Experimentation: Easy to test different settings
  7. Collaboration: Share configurations across team
  8. Transparency: Chain prompting provides audit trail
