UnverifiedA single execution-type agent exhibits three typical problems during long-running tasks: goal drift, shortcut-taking, and mid-task cessation76% similarVerifiedCommon failure modes in multi-agent architectures include infinite loop calls between agents, amplification of erroneous information along the transmission chain (hallucination cascade effect), and deadlock issues when some agents time out.74% similarUnverifiedIn multi-step automation scenarios, single-step errors caused by model hallucinations are amplified exponentially along the task chain.73% similarUnverifiedThe most critical characteristic of the agent loop is that the number of iterations is unknown in advance, and the action sequence emerges step by step based on task state during execution.72% similar
