Stop the Loop! How to Prevent Infinite Conversations in Your AI Agents

AI agent-to-agent (A2A) communication can lead to infinite conversation loops where agents endlessly delegate or refine tasks without reaching conclusions. These loops cause skyrocketing API costs, resource exhaustion, and security risks. The article identifies common causes—conversational deadlocks and missing termination conditions—and emphasizes the need for robust safeguards in multi-agent systems.
